Autonumbering aligned to the right of the column
I would like to autonumber formulas in my document. The formulas appear each
on one line (centered in this case), and the autonumber should appear to the right of each formula, right-justified to the right of the column. Is this possible and in that case how? Ex: left page margin formula or whatever [Eq. 1.1]right page margin Thanx in advance |

Set a right-aligned tab at the right margin and tab to it to insert the
number (a SEQ field). -- Suzanne S.

Thanks for the answer Suzanne, but I would like to auto-number the equations
through the style settings, with as little manual manipulations as possible. I found an alternative answer at, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/212381/EN-US/ which however also suggests to manually insert something after each formula - in this case a caption. I would like to be able to do the following: 1. I format a style, like any auto-numbered style (Headings for example). 2. I apply that style to any line, and the number automatically appears at the end of that line, with pre-set brackets, chapter and subchapter numbers in front, etc, etc. I found some general info about scientific publishing on, http://research.microsoft.com/~jckru...publishing.htm where it is suggested to insert a table for each formula. This would also include a lot of extra work for each formula. I understand if this is not possible to do with word. Best regards |

You can save a table as AutoText. And in fact, if you use Insert | Reference
| Caption to insert your captions and expect to create cross-references based on them, you will need to use a table; otherwise, everything that is in the same paragraph with the caption (i.e., the whole equation) will get picked up in a cross-reference. So the usual solution is to create a borderless table with a dummy equation and sample caption included and save it as an AutoText entry. I believe that MathType offers more sophisticated captioning techniques for equations; see www.dessci.com. -- Suzanne S.
