Default Frames, Styles and figures


Okay, so i've got the figures into frames with the captions and in
normal style...

* I still get copies of the figure in every place that I've cross
referenced them.

* If I go through and delete the cross references and re-insert, I all
works fine .. not copy of the image.

* If I Ctrl-A F9 to update all the fields, two things happen;
1) I get all my copies of the figures back with the cross
references
2) All the figures jump out of their frames again.

I want to cry...

I've created a long document with lots of captioned figures. As the
figures were floating, so were all the cpations(in textboxes). So that
meant that cross-referencing, table of figures etc. didn't work
properly. So I converted the textboxes to frames. In order to keep the
figures with the captions I cut and pasted the figures into the frames.
Fine, all worked well.

Except that whenever I cross-referenced a figure I got an image of the
figure. Huh? This was because the figure, now in-line, was in the Style
'caption'. So I changed the style of the figure to normal ... and ...
the figure jumpped out of the frames and into the main body of text.
Arrrgggghhhh .....

Its enough to make you want to use LaTeX.

Can anybody help?

Cheers,

Ian
