Default Step referencing in a numbered table

Hello,



I am attempting to create step references in a vertically number table. The table is actually a set of numbered instructions. The first column is the step number, the second column is an instruction, and the third column is a space to write the data pertinent to the instruction. At certain points, I want to be able to instruct the user to refer back to a previous step to re-record the data performed there. In my example below, I would like to make the line that says "Record the value from step 1.2" include a reference to the 1.2 line so that it would correct itself in the event that the numbering scheme changes (in my example a step was inserted before step 1.2, thus changing 1.2 to 1.3). I would ideally like to be able to use the automatic numbering function to do the numbering in the left column using tiered numbering (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.2.1, etc)

Thank you in advance for your help!
