You could use the Insert | Caption feature--click New Label to make it
Exhibit, then numbering to set it to A,B,C.

You may have to select all and hit F9 for the numbering to update after
moving around, I'm getting intermittent behavior.

Insert | Index and Tables, Table of Figures, should then offer you the
option to use Exhibit to build a table at the end.

It appears to me, and I'm not exceedingly familiar with this feature, that
the first time you create the Exhibit caption, it would need to be its own
paragraph, but that you could easily use Insert |Reference, Cross-Reference
to refer to the Exhibits later, in-line with text. Word will then also
update the cross-references, on F9.

If you include the Forms of Contract in the caption, it will show up in the
table and all the cross-references. Not sure how you would automate the
quotation marks and think they are unnecessary anyhow, as Exhibit is enough
of an identifier.

Do some experimenting on a COPY of your doc.

I'm working on a long Word 2003 document that will have numerous (about 15)
references to exhibits. Exhibit "A" and so forth. I'd like to somehow
automate the designation of the exhibit letter so that if a reference to an
exhibit is deleted or if text gets moved the designations will all be
correct (i.e., sequentially lettered). Also, I'd like to have an index of
exhibits at the end of the document that lists them like this: Exhibit "D" -
Form of Contract. I am familiar with styles but rather a neophyte on field
codes. Any help on this is much appreciated.
