Captions and Cross References not updated
When I add new Captions (for figures) and the associated Cross references the
reference & caption numbers are not updated. If I add a new Caption or delete one, when I select all and F9, the caption #'s remain the same. What am I missing here? Thanks, Joe M. |

Captions and Cross References not updated
Which version of Word? 2007, 2003, 2000, prior?
Are you working in Normal View with Background Repagination turned Off? When you press F9 do you get an Update... dialog with option to update Page Numbers or Entire Table? Updating page #s *only* is the default, select the second option. Possible you have unlinked the fields (accidental Shift+Control+F9, for example)? Are you doing the insertions through the insert Menu or manually? -- Regards |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Joe M." wrote in message ...

Version is 2003. I am working in Print Layout. Not sure how to check
Background Repagination. There is no dialogue after pressing F9. I am inserting using the Insert Menu. "CyberTaz" wrote: Which version of Word? 2007, 2003, 2000, prior?

Do you happen to have Track Changes turned on in the doc?
Also, go to ToolsOptionsView & from the Field Shading: list select Always. When you OK out do you see the caption numbers & cross-references shaded in gray? -- Regards |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Joe M." wrote in message news Version is 2003.
