figure caption inserts wrong information

M

I'm working in a 6 chapter document, and got my chapter numbers linked to the
outline function in word so I can name my figures beginning with the chapter
number, and also linked the chapter numbers to Heading2.
Insert>reference>caption worked correctly for Chapter 1 figures, but for
Chapter 2 and beyond, in the caption dialog box, it appears that the figure
label will be correct, ie: figure 2.6, but when I insert, the chapter number
is replaced with 0 - ie: 0.6. I can't figure this out and it's driving me
mad!

Are you saying that the captions themselves are correct but not the
cross-reference fields? What happens if you select the document and then
press F9 to update all fields?
