Re: [libreoffice-users] Internal Bookmarks
does this solution.. require that all subsequent entries made to footnotes must follow the field tabbed sequence? if not, how does LO distinguish between a field entry and and a text entry..

There exists a lot of predefined markers, and therefore you seldom need to set bookmarks manually. After you have used Insert -> Footnote/Endnote your Cursor is in the footnote area. Now use Insert -> Field -> More Fields... -> tab "Cross references". In your case you need the Type "Headings". In the part "Selection" select the heading for which you will enter a reference. In the part "Insert reference to" you can select what information of the referenced heading will be shown. In your case you need to insert the reference three times, each with a different information. First use "Number" to get "6.4.2", second use "Reference" to get "Sessions Highlights", and third use "Page" to get "47". All will update automatically, if you made changes in the text, for example change the wording of the heading or insert/delete text parts which will affect the number or page.

That is amazing - just about everything I need and with less effort than I imagined. Thank you so much for the explanation.

This will be very useful too, as some of the text is some way (and pages) from the latest section heading and there may well be tables as well.

How can I plant the marker in the original text and then reference it in the footnote? I'm no expert, but I think this is how to do this: If the reference is to a "section number and title", the title will presumably have appeared where it does with one of the Heading paragraph styles. If so: o In the footnote, go to Insert | Fields > | Other... | Cross-references. o Under Type, select Headings. o Under Selection, select the relevant heading. o Under "Insert reference to", select Page. o Insert. o Close. If you prefer not to use Heading paragraph styles or you need to refer to some other sort of object, you can simply place a bookmark (Insert | Bookmark...) at the target item. Then "Bookmarks" is another option under Type in the Fields dialogue. You may need to use Tools | Update | Update All to see the result of changes in pagination immediately, but documents will always open refreshed. I trust this helps.
