Title: Unexpected TOC output; what gives?

Fellow framers:

We want to include a chapter ToC at the beginning of the chapter itself.  So we have set up a TOC reference page with the following builders:

openObjectId <$relfilename>:<$ObjectType> <$ObjectId>
<$paratext>\t<$paranumonly[ChapterTitle]>\=<$pagenum>

The ToC builder line is supposed to produce output like ...

        How to wash your cat   ......................  24-3

What actually happens is that random characters (bullets, letters, etc.) appear instead of the chapter number.  We now generate a ToC from the book file and copy and paste the appropriate chapter entries.  But it would be more convenient to do it from each chapter.  Anybody have any clues why we are getting ALMOST the behaviour we want?
