Hi,

I am translating a series of documents outlining various co.
policies. These are presented as a series of points or rules. Each
document includes an end-table in which all the document's points are
re-listed in their entirety (for quick reference and as a checklist).
Actually there are two cross-referenced columns: one is for the
section #, and the other is for the section text (in the actual text,
both the section number and the relevant text are on the same line).
So presumably, any change made to the text will be updated in the
table.

I've used cross-referencing in the past, for page #s or captions...
but for some reason I'm blanking out. I've been going around in
circles with Word and the cross-reference function, and I've not
found (yet) an online page that will help me. I've even tried looking
at the original text for clues, but I'm not looking in the right
place, evidently. I can see that the orig. documents have bookmarks
set for crossreference and I can tell that there ae a lot of
specialized headings/styles, but beyond that I'm clueless and
whatever i try to do seems fruitless (insert cross-reference it wants
to insert a number, select text then insert crossreference and I get
a number instead...)

I am working on a MacOSX, with the latest Word for mac version.

Thanks in advance,
