Don't put yourself down like this. The only reason why I caught this was
that I have been doing this for almost 20 years. Your adding the step
number was something that needed to be done. I have now reviewed three
chapters which you reviewed before me. I quickly noticed just how well
you can spot things, seeming small things, that others would have passed
over. This is the reason why your are a very valuable asset to our
group. I am much stronger in doing the writing; you are much stronger in
finding the little mistakes that we make.
On question #2: You made a very good point on this: the page number has
to be included in the text.

Hi Dan and Team,
Apologies, but I suppose I'm now out of my depths on this one. The
references you're discussing were original in the documents when I
downloaded them as a draft. I simply added the step number to
hopefully highlight further, where to look in the text.
To Leo's point, I can absolutely see how keeping the page number is
important for hard copy reading.
Cheers,
Sam.

Then "on page x" does serve a purpose, so this should be kept as is.
The problem part of what you wrote is in where the reader is taken
when
you control + click the a link. Both links will take the reader to
page
7 not page 8. Furthermore, when right clicking either link and then
selecting Edit Field from the context menu, a reference number is
given
among other things. These two links have the same reference
number. The
same thing is true for every sentence containing a link and the
page it
is found on. I really do not see a reason for the second link to
be used
unless it is changed to the actual location rather than to the
heading
above the actual location.
This raises another question. Why was the link to a heading
instead of
where the information is located?
