TABLE NUMBERS IN CAPTION JUMP ABOUT 30 UNITS!
Hi ?B?UkFZ?=,
I used the regular table caption entry method for tables and figures in my doc. However, after a few table, the numbering jumps from say 4 to 37. Figures also jump one #. Which version of Word are we dealing with? Are you inserting the tables and figures (and thus the caption) "in-line" with the text? Or are applying any text wrap formatting?

BTW, figure numbers start with 3, instead of 1 Thans for you reply.

TABLE NUMBERS IN CAPTION JUMP ABOUT 30 UNITS!
Hi Ray,
Caption numbering is done by SEQ fields. If you press Alt+F9, all the field codes in the document should show, instead of the field results. Do you see any "stray" SEQ fields where there shouldn't be any? Or nested within other fields? (You'll recognize a field by the { brackets }). It's also possible to force numbering to jump or restart, although I wouldn't expec that to happen with just inserting captions. You don't see any \r or \s in any of the SEQ fields that make such jumps, by any chance? Any possibility this document originated in Word 97?

Hi Cindy - I don't see lost codes, and only see a \* switch in the SEQ field.
And, no, the doc was started in Word2003, which is th one I use now. Is there a chance of the doc getting messed up if I edit it in ojne computer and email it to an associate for him to edit it?
