Cross Referencing REF _Refnnnnnnnnn

Question

Hi.

Since I'm new here there maybe a chance issue was already discussed.

So here it is:

I'm trying to cross-refernce Figure in my document. My idea is to show only number of particular Figure so Figures can be i.e. "(see Figure 1-1, 1-2, 1-3) instead of "(see Figure 1-1, Figure 1-2, Figure 1-3)". The thing is I've already found this particular post which indicates how things should be done on:

http://wordfaqs.mvps.org/CombineXrefs.htm

But problem which arose is that when I try to add # "0x-0x" to Figure reference i.e. { REF _Ref218925266 # "0x-0x" \h } Word simply sums toger #Chapter#Figure and instead of getting "5-10" I get "15" which is totally wrong and in my case useless. I've tried lots of things already but without success.

So any solutions regarding this nut?

ty in advance

Answer 1

Since you are working with captions, the easiest solution is to add a bookmark around the figure number and then insert a cross-reference to bookmark text.

As you have seen, adding a numeric switch may not work in all versions of Word.

Answer 4

I see that you are using " " quotes in the fields. Remove them from the field and verify the output.
