Default Caption management Word 2016

Hi all,




I have a recurrent issue with caption in Word 2016.
I can write documents in English or in French.


For tables, the French word is TABLEAU and the English one is TABLE.


As far as a document can be in both languages, I would like to have only TABLE; whate ever the language is.


Unfortunately, I still have bad mixture in the names and also in the numbering.


How can I do to have only TABLE from the template and to avoid for ever any TABLEAU ?



Thanks in advance
Julien

Your Captions use Seq fields to do the numbering and identify what goes in the Table of Figures.

Open the field codes in your Captions and change Tableau to Table.
  1. Use Ctrl+A to select all the text in your document.
  2. Using Alt+F9 (Fn+Alt+F9 on some computers) you can toggle display of field codes.
  3. You can use Replace at that point to find all instances of Tableau and replace with Table. (This would also replace Tableau in your text, so be careful.)
  4. Remember to toggle the display of field codes back to results when done.
