Using cross-references

If you type in references to other parts of the document, those

references can easily get out of date if you reword a heading, add or

remove figures, or reorganize topics. Replace any typed cross-

references with automatic ones and, when you update fields, all the

references will update automatically to show the current wording or

page numbers. The

Cross-references

tab of the Fields dialog lists some

items, such as headings, bookmarks, figures, tables, and numbered

items such as steps in a procedure.

To insert a cross-reference to a heading or other text:

1) In your document, place the cursor where you want the cross-

reference to appear.

2) If the Fields dialog is not open, click Insert > Cross-reference.

On the

tab, in the

Type

list, select the type of

item to be referenced (for example,
