Autonumber style and insert cross reference from previous paragrap

K

Karina

I have a document that has styles defined.

There are figures and tables that have the Style “Graphicâ€
The captions are in the Style “caption.FIG†and “caption.TAB†respectively.

The captions are already populated with text, though they do not use field
codes. In Some cases, the captions say “Figure *54*†descriptive text

There are various paragraphs that reference the tables and figures with the
Text calling out “Figure *54*â€.

I would like to:
Automatically number the table and figure captions depending on their Word
headings (Figure 1.1, Figure 3.2.1, etc) and then update the text in the
preceding paragraphs to reference the figure and table numbers that were just
autonumbered.

I am completely overwhelmed! I want to do this with a macro, but don’t know
how to approach this.

Can anyone help?
