Default Table / Figure Caption and tying to Header 1

I am using headers to label my table/figures. Unfortunately, the header uses
Roman numerals, and when I select "Include Chapter Number" it places a Roman
"I" instead of a 1. I get "Table I-1" instead of the desired "Table 1-1". I
tried adding this to the field codes:
{STYLEREF 1 \s \* ARABIC}-{SEQ Table \* ARABIC \s 1}
but it will not change to arabic for the chapter number. Does anyone have
any suggestions on how to make this work? I'm using MS Word 2003.
Regards,
Kurt

As far as I know, you cannot use numeric picture switches to change what is
displayed by a STYLEREF field.

So, is there a solution? Seems kind of odd that a feature like this should
be left out.

Probably not, I'm afraid.
