Default 2 caption text boxes next to each other...numbering is inaccurate

Word 2000
Windows XP

I have a Word document with a number of pictures pasted into it. Some
pictures are small enough to have side-by-side in the document. Their layout
is square.

All pictures have an associated caption with autonumbering. The caption is
a text box. There is not a list of figures in the document. The numbering
of the pictures works throughout the document, however those pictures that
are pasted side-by-side the numbering is backwards. For example, the left
caption, relative to the page, is numbered Figure 8 and the right caption is
numbered Figure 7.

I have tried to delete the caption and reinsert it. I have used the mouse
to move the captions. None have worked.

This only takes place when the pictures are side-by-side and not when they
are placed on top of each other.
