Default Insert Cross Reference to Caption Number Only

"John McGhie [MVP - Word and Word Macintosh]" wrote

Use Insert Reference to "Numbered item", not "Equation".

Inserting a cross reference to an Equation or Table or Figure is
inserting a
reference to a bookmark placed automatically by Word. The choices
refer to
the selected content of the bookmark.

Word is bookmaking the whole string "Equation 3 Calculating
disbursements"

If you want it to bookmark just the number, use Insert Reference to
"Numbered item".


Unfortunately SEQ fields do not appear when Numbered Item is selected.

Now, it is for ListNum - I'm wondering if that's what you were
thinking of? :-)

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
