Reference table row numbers in main text Word document
Hi,
I use MS Word 2000, Window Professional 2000. I have a table where the first column is automatically numbered using bullet numbering function. As I insert/remove columns the numbering updates. My problem is I want to reference row numbers in the main text of my document - I have tried the {REF Bookmark} Field but this does not work for bullet numbers. What function can I use as my documents use alot of large tables and it's easy to miss reference updates in the main text of the document? Thanks, Neal C |

Hi Neal,
Since you've used automatic numbering, you can also use Insert|Cross-reference, with the 'numbered item' option.
