This is a common complication if you are tracking changes. You will have to
accept all changes and turn off the Track Changes feature for
cross-references to "behave."

I'm captioning all of my Tables and Figures and then referencing the
table/figure in the text using the cross-reference dialog box. Now all of
a
sudden in the last couple of documents I've been working with the caption
no
longer shows up in the cross-reference and some captions show twice. Has
anyone had this problem and (hopefully) solved it?

Thanks,
Ciindy

Only problem with accepting all changes is, it kind of defeats the purpose of tracking changes in the first place plus it may be a specific requirement for reviewing purposes. This problem is caused when you "update field" with track changes on. To be a little less "brute force and ignorant", just accept all the changes in the field updates referring tables (or whatever 'field' may have updated). This is a pain but it keeps your changes tracked for the next person reviewing your doc.

As usual, this is just another MS bug/shortcoming.
