Hi ?B?SXNsYW5kIEdpcmw=?=,
Is there any way I can insert a cross reference to "Section 5.8" and have the
result leave out the word "Section?"
Cross-references are actually REF fields. Looking up the Help topic on REF
fields reveals
"\t
Causes the REF field to suppress non-delimiter or non-numerical text when used
in conjunction with the \n, \r, or \w switch.
With this switch, for example, you can reference "Section 1.01," and only "1.01"
is displayed in the result."
So you can add the \t switch to your REF fields. Press Alt+F9 to display the
field codes and type this in just before the closing bracket }
