Default Insert Caption Numbering Error

Note that caption labels are stored in the Normal template, so they should
be available for all documents for the current user/installation of Word.

The problem starts with the fact that my caption label does not appear
in the list from "insert caption"... and if I manually enter it, the
number starts at "1". Do you know why a caption label would not appear
in the "insert label" dialog box? If I copy a "correct" one somewhere
in the document and paste it into the "new" location, I can update the
numbering and it works fine, its very strange.

Have you checked to make sure the caption label is the same? A label
difference can be as small as a case change or a space would change
the
numbering. To fix a field that is already inserted, show field codes
and
edit the label (aka SEQ identifier). To prevent accidentally getting
an
incorrect SEQ sequence, delete the unwanted caption label.

Only with one document right now, although I believe I had this happe
with another similar document. I can not determine if it is template
style definition problem, document section problem, etc. I can no
reproduce the problem in a clean document or any other documents that
created. Only my "inherited" documents.
