Default Numbering and Formatting

Insert | Reference | Cross-reference to Paragraph number of Numbered item.
Cross-references (REF fields) don't update entirely automatically but will
be updated along with other fields--that is, when you print, Print Preview,
or Ctrl+A, F9. If you leave the "Insert as hyperlink" box checked, the
cross-reference will also be a hyperlink.

So I have been given the task of editing a document..... and the owner
wants
to know if I can insert a link in a sentence to a certain numbered bullet
on
another page in the document (wants the actual number to be displayed).
Then..... if the number of the bullet changes for some reason he wants the
number in the sentence to change as well.

Sentence: For further instruction please see # 5.

so if the list of bullets gets edited, he wants the # 5 in the sentence to
automatically change to what the new # is in the list.

Is this possible?

Make sense? I hope so
