Default change caption formatting

My heading styles are based on Word's, but modified for font, size, spacing,
etc.

My headings are not in text boxes.

Did you use Word's built-in heading styles (heading 1 for chapter 1, etc.)?
Are your headings in text boxes?

I am merging several smaller docs into one large doc.

The small docs will become chapters in the new doc.

The small docs use figures with the following formatting: Figure 1, Figure
2, Figure 3, etc.

I want to automatically change the figure formats to the following numbering
Fig 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, etc., based on the chapter numbers.

When I try to do this I get the following result: Figure 1 in chapter 2
becomes Fig 0.1, fig 2 becomes Fig 0.2, Fig 3 becomes Fig 0.3, even though
the chapters are numbered automatically and correctly with the Styles
function.

I want Fig 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, etc.

Help!
