Insert Appendix references

Question

I want to insert Appendix references in a report and automate these references.  For example, I would write in t the text: Please refer toAppendix C, List of Popular Cars from 1958 .   When I add an Appendix reference earlier in the report, I would like all following Appendix references letters to automatically change.   Of course, I want to create a Table of Appendixes in the front of the document in the TOC. 

Thanks much for any help you can give me.

Answer 1

If you have cross-ref’ed to the Appendix, then it will update but you need to switch between Print Preview and Print Layout views to force the update.

Answer 2

OK, but tell me how to cross reference, if you would please.  This is precisely the problem I am having.

Thanks!

For "everything" on appendix numbering, see http://shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/numberingappendixes.html.

Answer 4

Here's one way:

Under the REFERENCES tab, click on "Cross-reference."

For "Reference Type", choose "Heading."

In the "Insert reference to" drop-down box, choose "Heading number (no content)."

Then, choose the heading you wish to reference.

Click the "Insert" button.
