problem copying and pasting data

L

lynn

I have a cleint who needs to copy and paste data from one
file to another, then format it in a specific way. The
main file contains tables, charts, and cross-references.
Something unusual is happening. If she copies a paragraph
that includes a cross-reference, everything copies fine at
first. The link works fine as well. She also needs to see
the formatting marks, so these are all on. The problem
occurs after she saves the file, then opens it the next
day. The cross-references now include the full caption,
instead of just "Table 3" for example. It will now
say "Table 3 - Full Title". I see a way that when you
Insert a cross-reference, you have the option of
specifying "Insert Reference To - Entire Caption, or
Label&Number" It seems as if what was originally changing
to Label&Number, had now changed to Entire Caption. How
can I change this back ??? Like I said - the document
looks fine once data is copied from one and pasted to the
other. It's after it's saved, then re-opened - things are
screwy.

Also, in regards to cross-references- the orignal file has
17 tables in it.These all are 'seen' by Word if I go to
Insert - Cross reference - Table. However, I copy and
paste all of these into a new document, and the new file
only thinks there are 4 tables.

Any help would be appreciated. Using Outlook 2000, SP2.
