Suppose I've set references named R1 and R2 in my document, and I

displayed in the Navigator, but I can't find a way to edit them.
Highlight the text that you've set the reference on, press Ctrl-F2,
click on the References tab, select Set Reference, type in the new name.
It'll kill the old reference - but that fact might not show up
immediately. That said, you'll probably lose any links to that reference.
Also, suppose I've created a cross reference to R1 in my document such
that the page of R1 is displayed, but I realize I don't want the page
to be displayed, I want the chapter instead. How can I edit this
cross reference to display the chapter instead of the page?
Right-click on the cross-reference. Select Fields.Select the format you
want and click OK.
Finally, I see that http://www.ooomacros.org/user.php offers the
Reference Manager macro, which seems to offer functionality such as
that I'm interested in. Does anybody have any experience with it or
recommendations/unrecommendations regarding it?
Hmmmm... haven't tried it. Could be worth a look though!
Thanks for asking these questions. It's helped me with some material I
really should add to our internal 'how to use OOo with our doco and not
stuff things up' document :)
