I insert the label+number and do not insert as a hyperlink.

Are you inserting just the number, the whole caption, or

what?

Yes, it seems strange to me too. The caption is present

in
the dialog box, the figure or table number is correct

but
when I press Insert nothing happens, even though I do

see
the Insert button go down. Some of the caption

references
do get inserted and some don't.

Thanks anyway.

Gotcha. I've type a lot of manuscripts that way in my

day. If you've used
Insert | Caption, then I can't think of any reason why

the caption would not
be available in the Cross-reference dialog. I assume

you're selecting the
appropriate reference type (Table or Figure, as

appropriate)?

Actually there aren't even any graphics in the file.
Instead of graphics I have text that says "Insert

Figure
xx" here and then beneath that I insert a figure

caption.
Similarly, the table are not Word tables but just

text
separated by tabs. (These formats are dictated by my
publisher.)

Note that if you insert a caption for a wrapped

graphic,
it will be in a
text box. If all your figures and tables are inline,

then
this will not be
an issue.

The headings are in built-in styles, though I

believe I
changed the font size. The figures and table

captions
are
what Word inserts. I then apply a style to them

but I
think that also just changes the font size.

All of these headings are in one of Word's built-

in
heading styles? Or are
bookmarked in some way?

No, none of them are in text boxes. I just

tried
inserting
a reference to a chapter. It works for Chapter

7
and
Chapter 11, but not 8, 9, or 10!

Are some of your figure/table captions in text
boxes?
Word can't "see" text
in text boxes.

I have a doc on Windows XP with Word 2002. I

just
started
having problems inserting references to

some of
the
headings, figures, tables, and custom items.

When
I
select
Insert|Reference|Cross-reference all the

figures,
tables,
etc. are present in the list box. However,

when I
select
one and press the insert button the button

goes
down
but
nothing gets inserted. They don't all fail -
inserting
works on some of the cross-references but

not
on
others.

TIA

Greg Reese
