Thats the "chapter" format Insert => fields => others Choose the referencestab, select "Myparanumber" in the type column select Myparanumber in the selection column Choose format chapter insert That wil insert the "paragraph numbering".....if you don't wish to see the number variable just set it to a very small font with the same color as the background (white?)...and a more logical variable names would probably be mycrossrefs The other option is of course to use the standard functionality manual references as described elsewhere in this thread - easier I suppose. I tend to like the number range variable - ideal for figure numbering as they can be referenced as example figure 5 in chapter 3.5 Kjell L. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
