Hi,
Anybody know a good MS word forum?
Also, perhaps you might be able to help me a particular problem.
I am inserting captions for diagrams in a MS word doc. I am calling them figure 1, figure 2 figure 3 etc. I am then inserting cross references to refer to them.
However if I need to insert a figure between figure two existing figures e.g. a new figure between 2 and figure 3, I have then renumber figure 3.
I would prefer to use some sort of incrementing variable. Call my figures X, and then word would fill in the X.
Anybody know how to do this?
Cheers
