hi Bsmout,

For captions relating to objects other than tables, it can be much more difficult to program. If the objects are formatted as anything other than in-line with text, it can be extremely difficult, as there may be no apparent relationship (other than a visual one that means little to vba) between the object's position on the page and its caption. Furthermore, even for objects formatted as in-line with text, one would need to handle them differently if they're part of the paragraph containing the caption, are in a paragraph of their own or are attached to a different paragraph. None of these considerations apply with most tables.
