The way that Cross References actually work is that they require a bookmarked range first and then the crossRef is simply a field that points at that bookmarked range.

The Insert Cross Reference dialog doesn't provide an option to link to just the number but if you add a bookmark around that number then you can use that Insert Cross Reference dialog to refer to the bookmark.

Thanks Andrew. I bookmarked the "14" part of the photo caption, named it "Photo14" and successfully cross-referenced it. It looks straightforward to automate that process when the photo captions are created.

I inserted another photo earlier in the sequence and previewed the document, now the "14" in the photo caption is "15" but the bookmark is still "Photo14". That will cause me problems down the track when lots of photos are inserted because I won't know which bookmark to cross-reference to. Can you see a way around that?

Also, is it possible to output a list of all the available ReferenceKind options?

Thanks for your help.
