Captions and Figures Inside a Frame...RIDICULOUS MS hasn't developed a solution!!!

Unhappy Captions and Figures Inside a Frame...RIDICULOUS MS hasn't developed a solution!!!

I'M GONNA SCREAM...AND POSSIBLY THROW MY COMPUTER ACROSS THE ROOM!!!

Scenario: Document in Word 2007 with many images, tables and charts. At least a 1/3 of the figs/tbls are small and therefore need to "float" so that text can be wrapped around them. Every fig/tbl needs a caption, a source, and some may have additional information attached to them. It's a long document so there is a TOC, but the caption is the only part that needs to make it to the TOC. I would like the figs/tbls to be on the right adjacent with the right margin. So...how do I get the caption and other associated information to move with the fig/tbl?

Captions won't be read if I put them in text box. So I'm trying to use frames, but every element within the frame (figure, caption, source, and add. info) has a different format style. The problem is that I need the frame to have a border box, but any border assigned to the frame actually winds up on the frame AND each of the individual elements in the frame, which isn't right and looks ridiculous.



Can anyone please help me so I can move on to actually finishing this very long document. I've been trying to resolve this problem for 6+ hours.

Thanks to ALL in advance
