Default How to use cross reference for in table equation

If you are saying that there are multiple numbers, a paragraph number and an
equation number, you should be able to cross-reference them separately. Was
the equation number created as a field? Then you could bookmark it and
insert a cross-reference to the bookmark text.

Stephan,

I tried that but when I chose "Numbered items" as my reference type, the
only choice I get for insert reference to are (paragraph number, paragraph
text, ...etc). I want to insert the equation number like (1.1),(1.2),
...etc.
Note: the equations numbers (1.1),(1.2),..etc are shown in the "for which
number item box" but they are only used to reference the paragraph number
of
text to.

Thanks
Jade

I don't know which blog you are referring to, but, generally, you can
insert
a cross-reference to "Numbered item" in the Cross-reference dialog box.
To
access the dialog box, click the Insert tab, and then click
Cross-reference
(Word 2007).

Hi Suzanna,

I followed the way showed in the blog to cross reference equations
using
three-column table and multi-level list. I works great. However, how
can I
cross-reference the equation number i.e. (1.1) when I talk about the
equation
in my paragraph.
Ex. I want to say: "please refer to equation (1.1) " cross reference"
so
when the equation number changes for any reason such as adding more
equations
above it the cross reference in the sentence follow the new change.

Thanks alot
Jade
