Initially, you'll have a bit of work but these use the SEQuence Field and allow you to create a Table of Figures, Table of Tables, etc.

Default Thanks!

Hi Charles,

Thanks for your tip, I have it working, for the most part. I'll need to tinker with it just a bit but overall, it appears that it works as you had noted.

Interesting occupation you've got! I can see how that line of work would require a good bit of writing documents. I write technical manuals at my workplace and also historical and genealogical reports for a hobby and am realizing the powerful tools that Word has when creating complex documents.

I'll hang on to the other link you sent me, looks like some good stuff there, too!

Hi Charles,

I have another small issue that runs along with what you suggested. When I go through tis process, the autonumbering scheme is creating it to look like "Figure 0.1" as I evidently don't have any chapters in my document. The document itself is stand-alone but will be implemented with other documents later on, so it technically has a chapter number, just not with a whole set of other chapters. Confused?

Do you know of a way I can default the autonumbering to read something like "Figure 6.x" and have the "x" increment as I ad or insert new iamges?
