Footnote Cross-Referencing Renumbering Problem

D

Hi,

I have a lengthy Word 2003 doc with many footnotes. The footnotes
automatically renumber when I add or delete footnotes, but the
cross-references I have inserted do not renumber (except they magically did
once, I don't know why, but refuse to again). Any suggestions? According to
Word's help feature, the cross-references should renumber along with the
footnote numbers.

Cross-references update "semi-automatically." They don't update on their own
the way the footnote numbers do, but if you Ctrl+A, Ctrl+F9, they should be
updated, and they will also update at print time provided you have "Update
fields" checked on the Print tab of Tools | Options.
