I have been learning about captions as I've had enough of trying to manage figure numbers and cross-references manually! If I create a fresh document (Word 2010) I can add captions and create the table of figures no worries.

However I have a bunch of policy docs and want to add in a table of figures but when I right click on the image and select 'Insert Caption" the caption text field is disabled. It's not greyed out, you just can't click inside it. Also I noticed that Word normally defaults to label type 'Figure' and places the text 'Figure 1' inside that field but it is blank.

Can anyone help me sort this out? Thank you.
Hi,

you can control all the settings of caption style by modifying the style.

please, see the attached image

Jamal,
I have the same issue, but I did not see anything in the paragraph formatting window (or any of the formatting windows) that could possibly enable or disable the text box. What am I missing?
Thank you,
AB
