How do I create a numbered list of bookmarks
In tables of referenced documents, I used to have a numbered list in the
first column. I could select the number and use Insert Bookmark to create a bookmark for the reference. I could then cross-reference the bookmark later in the text. The cross-reference text that appeared was the number. If I then inserted new references, I could renumber all reference numbers in the list by selecting the table column and using F9. I just started a new job and don't have a table to cut and paste from and don't remember how I initially set this up. Can you point me towards some instructions? |

Which version of Word?
The steps you list seem to be exactly how to do it -- what are you missing?

How do I create a numbered list of bookmarks
If you just create a numbered list (FormatBullets and Numbering), you can't
select the number itself as the bookmark text. I found out that it would work if I used InsertField, set the Category to 'Numbering' and the select 'ListNum' from the Field Names. This will insert a number in the table cell that you can, then, highlight and select InsertBookmark. Then when you cross reference that bookmark later on, the number will be displayed as the bookmark text. The numbers will automatically resort if new table entries are inserted or if existing entries are deleted. I figured it out using brute force. I would think that it would be a fairly common thing to do - for which a help topic would exist. (I'm using Word 2003.) "Peter T. Daniels" wrote: Which version of Word?

How do I create a numbered list of bookmarks
Numbered items are already automatically bookmarked by Word. You need only
use Insert | Reference | Cross-reference and insert the "Paragraph number" of the numbered item. -- Suzanne S.

water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This makes it an ideal choice for outdoor activities like hiking, kayaking, and camping where weather conditions can be unpredictable. https://routefinderhq.com/best-fish-finder-gps-combo/
