Section references in a multilevel list
Hi,
Let's say I am writing a procedure in the form of a multilevel list. 1. 1.2 2. 2.1 and so on. If I want to repeat a part of the list, like, "If the value is not within .001", repeat 2.3.1 through 2.3.6. If I do some editing within 2.3.1 and 2.3.6, say I added another level after 2.3.2, then my reference above is no longer correct. Is there a way of linking a level number to references to it so that if the level number changes, the reference to it changes as well? Otherwise I have to go searching for the references and correct them. Does that make sense at all? ;o) |

Click References tab | Cross-reference. Select "Numbered item" for "Reference type," and select "Paragraph number" for "Insert reference to." Click the number that you want to reference, and click OK.
Note that cross-references, like most fields, do not update automatically. You can update all fields in the selection by pressing F9, or you can trigger an update of cross-reference fields, as well as some other types of fields, by switching to Print Preview (Ctrl+F2) and then back to your previous view (ESC).
