I'm working on cardiology guidelines with 100+ pages and 1200+ references
when I try to insert a cross-reference to a numbered item for references, I can't get past 999 even though I have more than that.
Is there a way to make the other references show up?
or is there a better and easier way to insert a superscript like hyperlink that links to references?
thanks in advance!
