Default Table of Figures

I have figures and tables in a document, and I want a Table of Figures for
the captions. When I create the Table of Figures, Word goes into one of the
tables and adds entries to the Table of Figures from the entries in the
table, not just the caption for the table.

Default Table of Figures

Have you used the Caption paragraph style in the table?

Yes. I read that in the "Help" and it did not help.

What is weird is that it is going inside a table and getting entries in a
table and putting them in the Table of Figures.

I figured it out. Somehow, the Style for the data in the table was not
"Normal", but was "Caption." When I set the correct style for the table
entries, they disappeared from my Table of Figures.

Thanks.

That was the point of my first question since having the table text in
Caption style would produce this result.
