Return figure caption # to program

[agreenfield1]

I am using the command

Selection.InsertCaption Label:="Figure",
TitleAutoText:="InsertCaption1", _
Title:="", Position:=wdCaptionPositionBelow

to place a caption. How can I return the figure caption number just
inserted to my VBA program?

Thanks,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Use:

Selection.InsertCaption Label:="Figure", TitleAutoText:="InsertCaption1", _
Title:="", Position:=wdCaptionPositionBelow
Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdWord, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend
MsgBox Selection.Fields(1).Result
Selection.Collapse wdCollapseEnd
