I wanted to add my experience to this one.

I had the first two tables in a section (section used in the sense of 2.0
Heading Text, not as word uses 'section break') would be numbered fine, Table
2-1 and Table 2-2, but after that it skipped back to Table 0-1 and Table 0-2.
The next section started OK as well with Table 3-1 but then went to Table 0-1
again.

My numbering was fine, the styles were defined properly. I even copied the
table titles and pasted without formatting to try and break whatever had gone
wrong.

Unfortunately there were a few misplaced Style codes between the lines.
Using Show/Hide Paragraph Marks and slowly arrowing down through my document,
I found an extraneous heading style on an empty paragraph line in Section 2.
In Section 3 I found the previous caption had a line beneath it with the
[unused to us] Caption3 style applied.

After a quick "Clear Formatting" applied to these lines, I updated my table
caption codes and they fell right into place.

Hope this can help someone else!!
