Thank you... this works exactly as I had hoped. Such a simple
solution, but
so difficult to find!
Online Search for "renumber figures" takes me to Office Onliine
support
site, with 24 hits "sorted by best match"
1) Quiz: Excel formulas
2) Top 10 ways to plan your wedding with Office
3) Color it effective: How color influences the user
need I go on? This is F***ing TERRIBLE
The support of users in forums is the only thing that keeps me from
totally
trashing my Office installs and moving on... Quite a statement
from someone
who was actually employed as a developer for 5 releases of Office in
Redmond!
Somebody please take note!

Were the captions created via Insert | Reference | Caption? If so,
they are built with SEQ fields. To update those in the combined
document, just select all (press Ctrl+A) and then press F9 to
update
all fields (this includes the cross-references, too).

I have a set of Word docs that each contain auto-numbered figure
captions
starting at 1, and embedded cross-references within the text
body.
I want to merge these files into a single document with a
continuous
running
index of all figures. How do I force a re-number of the
figures?
Note: I created the 'master' document by copy-paste from each
sub-document.
Is there a better way to merge these docs that will take care of
my
figure
numbering issue too?
