Default 2 figures cross reference

Thank "macropod" (Paul Edstein) for that one.

Yes, those are the steps I'm using too. But, as I wrote, they didn't seem

work at one instance. Unfortunately, I don't recall the exact
circumstances.

My experience with using the Bookmark dialog to find these bookmarks is
that
you have to not only check the box for "Hidden bookmarks" but also
select the
radio button for "Location" rather than "Name."

To be more specific: I have noticed, at least once, that the Bookmark
dialog
box cannot be used to uniquely locate (the name of) the hidden
bookmark at
the insertion point. I haven't made any thorough tests after I updated
Office
to the most recent service pack, though.

Thanks for the heads-up, Stefan.

"The brilliant way" is certainly... well, brilliant. :-)

I find that redefining the hidden bookmark ("the kludgy workaround")
isn't
as reliable in Word 2007 as it used to be in earlier versions.

I want to refer to two figures, for example say "in Figures 1 and
2..."
when
I use cross-reference, there seems to be no way rather than
writting "in
Figure 1 and Figure 2...."

I tried to delete second "Figure" manually, but when I update the
field
it
comes back.

Any suggestions?

thank you
