This has happened to me many times working in documents, but fortunately has
never affected anything in a way that I could see.

I add figures and captions, and make my cross-references in the text as I go
along. But sometimes - usually when I've closed and re-entered the document -
figures are listed 2 and 3 times in the cross-reference dialog.

Why is this? Looking through some of the other threads, I see that it might
have to do with bookmarks, which gives me an uneasy feeling. However, it has
never created a problem when I work with a document over a long period of
time.

Any thoughts?

Are you tracking changes?

Yes, I do track changes most of the time.

What's the connection?

Track Changes is known to affect numbering in various ways. If you do a Save
As and, in the new document, accept all changes, does the Cross-reference
dialog box then behave?
