Cross Reference - problem with figures and tables

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel Hello!

I didn't find anything abou this problema!!!

I'm doing my work on both office, Office 2007 WIN and Office 2008 MAC. I'm using cross reference in office 2007 win for figures, tables, bookmarks and so on... but when I open the file on the office for mac, I can simply use cross reference with figures and tables. When I go to the menu of the cross reference for figures and tables, it shows me nothing. Everything else is OK. When I open the same file on the office 2007 win, the list of figures and tables on the cross reference menu are there...

Someone knows what I'm talking about? Some solution?

Thanks

There are two ways of creating cross-references, using either HYPERLINK
fields for REF fields.

Mac Word can't see HYPERLINK fields as being cross-references. You need to
use the REF fields if you want them to work on the Mac. Which means you
need to use the Caption style for the paragraph, and use the "Figure" or
"Table" identifier.

Look up the REF field and Cross-referencing in the help for more
information. Use the Word 2007 Help, the Word 2008 help is useless.

Cheers
