Is there a workaround/kludge for cross referencing text thatcontains spaces and/or special characters?
I just returned back here to post this very explanation. It dawned on
me this morning after talking with a colleague that I was doing exactly the wrong thing in my approach--I wasn't understanding the tool fully. I use a different word processor often, and it handles its equivalent of bookmarks and cross references differently. Applying that tool's approach to a Word document wound up confusing me. Things improved once I realized that the bookmark title is just a designation and not the text that will be reflected in the x-ref. It also helped to realize that I have to select the entire phrase that will appear as the cross-reference and then apply the bookmark to that phrase. In the other word processor that I use, you can simply add its equivalent of a bookmark to a space anywhere in the paragraph that you wish to cross reference and it'll do the right thing. Doing that in Word yields an empty x-ref...one more thing that compounded my confusion. All is well now. THanks, Suzanne, for the help. |
