Default updating Multiple references to automatic numbered figures

hi all
I am doing a Phd the subject of which is "Advanced electric guitar
technique" Much of my thesis contains musical exercises i. Anyway my
problem Im hoping someone can help me with is this;

Inserting a number using the field tab allows the number to change
automatically if I add a musical exercise to the text out of sequence (for
example I realize that a more in-depth break down of a musical exercise
resulting in a number of new figures being added). Obviously all the
subsequent numbers will change. However, if I have referred to them
elsewhere in the text by figure number, that reference number remains
unchanged.

How do I get those numbers to update automatically as well? At the moment
I have to go through the whole text and all the figures and change them
manually every time I make an addition it is very time consuming with 100s of
references.

Am I correctly doing this? Does anyone have any suggestions? Any guidance
would be appreciated.

I know there is multiple reference to 1 foot note/end note explained thought
the forum but not this

Kind regards
Andy
