Cross reference "style"?
I have a large number of cross references in my document. I would like to
give a common format for all of them say "Chap Name Section Name 2.1.3 p 32" Currently I need to insert a cross reference several times for each such reference. Is there a way to define this style and use it to update all cross references in the document or atleast insert new cross references based on this structure? Thank you Jayawanth |

Cross reference "style"?
No, since each cross-reference refers to a *particular* bookmarked item (its
text or paragraph number), this won't be possible. However, you could ask in a programming newsgroup if someone knows a macro solution. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Jayawanth" wrote: I have a large number of cross references in my document.

Cross reference "style"?
NO need to make a Unique style for cross-references to update then at once,
in fact its better to leave them styled with "normal" NOW: how to update them all,, press CTL+A (that selects all your document) then press F9 to updatre ALL fields that need updating (including Indeces, Content tables, Figure or formulae captions and cross-references) "Stefan Blom" wrote: No, since each cross-reference refers to a *particular* bookmarked item (its text or paragraph number), this won't be possible.

Cross reference "style"?
But note that the original poster was actually asking for a way to
simultaneously insert a single "complex" cross-reference including heading text, heading number, and page number (which in Word would require three cross-reference fields). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Jake" wrote in message ...

Cross reference "style"?
Correct. I was looking for a template with name, number and page and use this
repeatedly whenever I insert a cross reference. Currently there are several invocations of the XRef dialog box, several clicks - since the the selection is lost and the multiple insertions happen one next to each other which I need to space it out.

Cross reference "style"?
Are you aware that you can insert multiple cross-references (to the same
item) without closing the dialog box between insertions? That might help a bit. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Jayawanth" wrote in message ... Correct.
