Problem with heading levels in localized version of Word 2002

[Vedranko_Croatia]

Captions and equations are always linked to predefined heading levels (styles
Heading 1, 2 etc.).

For example, when using a form "Fig. 1-1", field codes have a form similar to:
Fig. { STYLEREF 1 /s }-{ SEQ Figure \* Arabic 1 }

In the example above, STYLEREF references heading level 1, meaning that the
numbering will be linked to a predefined heading level, without the
possibility of using a user style as a reference.

PROBLEM: Croatian, localized version of Word uses styles "Naslov 1, 2..."
instead of English "Heading 1, 2...". When the file is opened in a different
localized version of Word, localized heading styles are changed, and
STYLEREF doesn't find any headings in text, resulting in error messages like
"Error! Style is not defined". Predefined heading levels should be recognized
internally regardless of their localized style names (they should probably
always be saved as heading levels, regardless of their style names).

It seems as though there is a bug in your Croatian version of Word.
Personally, I'm using English and Swedish versions of the application,
and my experience is that { STYLEREF 1 } and { STYLEREF 1 /s }
references the paragraph text and the paragraph number, respectively,
of the top-level built-in heading, regardless of its display name in
the language version at work.

On the other hand, if a STYLEREF inserted in English Word contains an
explicit reference to a style name, such as { STYLEREF "Heading 1" },
an error will be produced in my Swedish version of Word.
