Cross reference
Hi ?B?SXNsYW5kIEdpcmw=?=,
Is there any way I can insert a cross reference to "Section 5.8" and have the result leave out the word "Section?" Cross-references are actually REF fields. Looking up the Help topic on REF fields reveals "\t Causes the REF field to suppress non-delimiter or non-numerical text when used in conjunction with the \n, \r, or \w switch. With this switch, for example, you can reference "Section 1.01," and only "1.01" is displayed in the result." So you can add the \t switch to your REF fields. Press Alt+F9 to display the field codes and type this in just before the closing bracket } Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 17 2005) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |

A number switch on the cross reference (REF) field should do it { REF name
\# "0.0" } Or simply bookmark the number and cross reference that. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Island Girl wrote: Is there any way I can insert a cross reference to "Section 5.8" and have the result leave out the word "Section?"
