Default How to cross reference/duplicate text in another part of the doc.

Hi,

I am translating a series of documents outlining various co. policies. These
are presented as a series of points or rules. Each document includes an
end-table in which all the document's points are re-listed in their entirety
(for quick reference and as a checklist). Actually there are two
cross-referenced columns: one is for the section #, and the other is for the
section text (in the actual text, both the section number and the relevant
text are on the same line). So presumably, any change made to the text will
be updated in the table.

I've used cross-referencing in the past, for page #s or captions... but for
some reason I'm blanking out. I've been going around in circles with Word and
the cross-reference function, and I've not found (yet) an online page that
will help me. I've even tried looking at the original text for clues, but I'm
not looking in the right place, evidently. I can see that the orig. documents
have bookmarks set for crossreference and I can tell that there ae a lot of
specialized headings/styles, but beyond that I'm clueless and whatever i try
to do seems fruitless (insert cross-reference it wants to insert a number,
select text then insert crossreference and I get a number instead...)

I am working on a MacOSX, with the latest Word for mac version.

Thanks in advance,

--Laura
