It sounds like it has been a known issue that in order to update sheet numbers on a sheet model that are controlled by the sheet index tool, you have to go into each sheet model manually for them to update. I did find a post HERE which proposed a solution that a few people seemed to indicate worked well. However, we have not had any success with this solution and I didn't get a response in that thread so I'm hoping someone can help me troubleshoot this issue here. We noticed some strange things when testing, such as the pset generated by the sheet index tool not running if one of the dgns containing sheet models opened to a design model. When we went into that dgn, went to a sheet model, did a save settings, got out of that file and tried generating the pset from sheet index to print, it ran fine but did not update the sheet numbers.
I think in the latest version of the software, they have created a right-click option called "Update Sheet Model Properties". I believe this tool is supposed to update those sheet number fields. Right-Click on a Sheet or a Folder in the Sheet Index to see that tool. Hope that works.

Ironically I found that out shortly after posting this. It seems to work on both locally stored files as well as files on ProjectWise surprisingly. Unfortunately it seems to only be available in current release of Microstation at the moment. Hopefully they add that to civil products shortly as it can be a big deal if updating large amounts of sheets. I wish there would have been something to highlight this feature… a video on their YouTube, wiki that got blasted out in forums, etc.
