Linking Captions to styles other than Headings
Hi there, I wonder if anyone out there can help me with a little problem. I
have a very large document that consists of numbered list (outlined) linked to Headings 1, 2 and 3. This is then followed by Appendices which are also (outlined) numbered lists but these are linked to new styles headings named Appendix Headings 1, 2 and 3. I have done this so I could set format of the main document to have 1.1 Heading 1, 1.1.1 Heading 2 and then 1.1.1.1 Heading 3. The appedices then follow in a different format with A1.1, A1.1.1. The problem I now have is that I want to insert some captions for figures and tables and I want to link these to the chapter numbers. However I only seem to be able to do this for the first part of the document for the Headings 1, 2 and 3. Does anyone know if there a way I can link captions to different styles or a way around this? I hope I have explained this so it makes sense (it is harder that I thought!). Any help would be very much appreciated!!! Thanks in advance Steph |
