4) In the Name field in the lower right hand column, type the name

of the reference you set in the subdocument you are referring to.

In our example, the reference is in Chapter 3, and its name is

word count

5) Click Insert, type any text you want to appear between the

reference and page number (such as “on page”), and then insert

another reference with the Page format. Nothing will appear in

the subdocument except tiny gray bars indicating the fields. If you

hover the mouse pointer over one of these fields, you should see

the field name (Figure 373).

6) After you have inserted all the cross-references required in the

subdocument, save and close it and return to the master

document window.

Within the master document, navigate to the page of the

subdocument on which you inserted the cross-reference field. You

should now see the text of the cross-reference appear in the spot

where you inserted it (Figure 375), because within the master

document, the subdocument can find the target of that field

reference.

This technique also works if you open a subdocument directly in step 2

(that is, not from within the master document) and insert a cross-

reference field.
