Short story: Caption style was left justified (who does this?). Tried to
correct it to be centered. Ended up getting a "caption" style which was
based on the Normal paragraph style. Now auto insertion of captions does not
work (doesn't give me the "Figure 1, Figure 2" starting point. Why!!!????

1) Why allow caption to be left justified (actually not a bad idea)
2) Why not allow it to be centered?
3) Why in the hell would you allow the default paragraph style "Caption" to
be modified to "normal", and then -never- brought back? This makes no sense.

This is another case of an extremely "feature rich" office app that, when
you get right down to it, has been very poorly thought out. This usually
results in people like me spending a ton of time trying to work around the
tool, rather than getting the benefit from it.

Suggestion: Spend some time (and $$) thinking about what really makes
sense, rather than just piling on feature after feature in a random way.
Spend more time -using- the product, and less time just adding poorly thought
out, incomplete, erroneous junk.

If I could find a competing product that didn't have OS or file format
issues, I would gladly use it!!!!
