Why do cross references change when I print?
They're fields, and by default fields are updated when you print.

Why do cross references change when I print?
Suzanne, is there a way to turn off that default setting? I posted to the
group on this same item yesterday, because my numbered paragraph cross-references are dorrect when I save the file, but as soon as I click to print the document, the cross-references change, where what should be paragraph 4.8 becomes 1.8, and paragraph 15.6 becomes 12.6. What am I doing wrong???? Thanks.... (if you can solve this, I owe you a Mexican lunch at the restaurant of your choice!!) Cyndie Browning Tulsa, OK "Suzanne S.

You can clear the "Update fields" box on the Print tab of Tools | Options,
but some fields are updated when you print regardless (these include page numbers and all fields in the header and footer; see €śWD97: Fields Updated When Document Repaginated€ť at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=89953). -- Suzanne S.

Alas, that's not the answer I was looking for. The cross-references are all correct UNTIL I print the document. Also, everytime I open the document, I have to update all the cross-references. And here's the thing: I clicked on the pizza button, Word Options, Display, and under "Printing Options," I turned ON the "Update fields before printing" option. Now the document prints out just fine with the fields all showing what they're supposed to. Go figure!! Anyway, thanks for your help. Cyndie Browning Tulsa, OK "Suzanne S.

Well, glad you got there in the end, but it's odd that updating once makes
them wrong and updating again makes them right! -- Suzanne S.
