Default Consequential numbering

Assuming that you numbered your Attachments using Word's auto numbering
feature, you can insert a cross-reference to the number: In Word 2007, click
the References tab, and then click Cross-reference in the Captions group.
For "Reference type," choose "Numbered item." Choose "Paragraph number" for
"Insert reference to." Click Insert.

Hi - I have a lengthy document and within the text of each paragraph it
states for example, 'Attachment 1 to this document is a copy of the
letter'.
As I am working on the document I am moving paragraphs around. Is there a
way of automatically setting the 'Attachment 1' reference so that if the
paragraphs move around the Attachment number will also update
automatically
to reflect the order of where it sits? Many thanks for any suggestions.
