I'm saying you select the numbers in the captions themselves and name the bookmarks independent of the actual number that shows eg
2-1 bookmarked as tblTaxEColi
4-1 bookmarked as tblDistUTIbyAge
4-2 bookmarked as tblBactFungGrowth

Then your xRefs can be created as
table ({Ref tblTaxEColi \h})


table ({Ref tblDistUTIbyAge \h})
table ({Ref tblBactFungGrowth \h})

I'm sorry Mr. Guessed

I can't understand the basis of this method and I tried but without benefit.
What about the list of tables or figures at the end? Is updateable or not??
Can you send me your file, please?

Thanks
