Hi Again Jay,

Sorry to be a problem child, but I found my answers with some more
hunting, and got the macro to work.

The style I've been setting things to is called "Cross-reference," so
that is what I set the style line in your macro to.

It finally occurred to me that I was just doing in code what the Word
Find box did in the app, so I started experimenting with that. I found out
that, indeed, "^d" says to search fields.

When I went to add my style criteria to the search, I found that there
was a style called "Cross-reference Char" in the list. Guess what? That one
works just fine. It doesn't find a single one if I use "Cross-reference."
It must be a paragraph/char style thing that I need to understand better.

I suppose I still have a lot to learn, but I'm smarter than I was. The
coolest thing is that all my references now have page number next to them,
and I hardly had to do a thing.


Thanks for the help!

Max

Hi Max,

The "Char" style problem is something else -- we generally consider it
a bug. One of many explanations in the newsgroups is Shauna Kelly's:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...2dcdcff8?hl=en

"In Word 2002 and 2003, "Char" styles are created when you select part
(but not all) of a paragraph and apply a (paragraph) style to that
part."
