Default How do I get caption numbering to number in sequence?

Dean,

I don't have track changes on, so that is not it. From some other reading I
have done, I think the issue may be related to using text boxes. What I do
to keep my figure or equation together with my caption is insert a text box
and then put the figure or equation in the text box and then add the caption.
This keeps my caption and figure together, but I think this may confuse Word
2007. It is just funny though that sometimes it works well and sometimes it
doesn't. I also understand that since my captions are in text boxes I may
have trouble creating a list of figures since that command does not see
captions in text boxes. If you have any other advice on how to better keep
figures and equations together with captions that allows them to move
together and automatically number sequentially, please let me know.

Thanks,

Craig

Peter,

Yes, that has not corrected the problem.

I am using the captioning function in word and it usually does OK, but in
some instances it gets the nubering out of order. I have ensured the anchors
are on the same paragraph and the figures or equations are below one another
in the document, but I still get some numbered out of order. Any ideas on
what I am doing wrong?


Have you tried refreshing your fields?
