Wow -- that was quick!

I haven't used any automated numbering. I've been using EndNotes for
Tables,
Figures, etc. captions. So I can use the automated numbering for the
Appendices number within the text. I'll give it a try.

If you have used automatic numbering of any kind (including caption
numbering) for your appendixes, then you can use Insert | Reference |

Cross-reference to insert a reference to the paragraph number of the
heading, numbered item, or caption, as appropriate.

The appendices are within the text like this:

"...2000 are listed in Appendix A. The teacher standards are
currently
under
review and revised standards will be released..."

Is there some way of inserting the "Appendix X" and having Word
change the
letter "X" so it's the right letter in the the right order, such as
"A",
"B",
etc.? The term "Appendix X" is within the paragraph. I tried the
instructions on the Shauna Kelly site and Microsoft site and I end up
with
the paragraph with the Appendix being reformatted, with a number in
front
of
it. Maybe I'm missing a step, or confused or those instructions
aren't
what
I'm looking for. Are the instructions on Shauna Kelly's site suppose
to
work
for what I need?

Thanks for the help.

I have a large document that has at least 30 Appendices. I would
like
to
automate the numbering within the text. So far I've seen the
Outline
Appendix suggestion from MS but that doesn't appear to be what I
need.
Is
this something that can be done with MS Word? I am desperate.

Shauna's method works. You need to assign a built-in Heading to the
Appendix. Then in the text use crossreferencing to the appropriate
heading to get it automatically picked up, and automatically changed if
later the Appendix number is updated (because you insert a new Appx
before the one you referenced to).
