Table of Figures/Tables - Approx. 200 of each in large document

[LisaW]

I believe we are using Word 97.
I have a 1200 page WORD document that has about about 200 Figures and Tables
and I would like to make a Table of Figures and Table of Tables to include. I
was able to make a Table of Contents using RD Field Codes and believe I need
to use the TC to make a Table of Figures/Tables but there are approx. 200 of
each Figures/Tables.
Using the master document did not work as it kept crashing....

Thank You

Hi =?Utf-8?B?TGlzYVc=?=,

You can check that in the Help/About menu.

Search in Help for the information about the TOC field. You'll find a list of
switches; these are the things that customize the field (the TOC) to do
different things. One thing you can have it do is pick up an SEQ field
identifier, so that it creates a list only for paragraphs that belong to that
particular SEQuence (such as Figure or Table number).

Just build a TOC field with the correct switches and you should be able to use
it with RD fields.

Hi
We are using Word 2002.
When you use the SEQ field do you have to put something next to each
Table title or Figure title. THere are about 400 tables total so that would
require
lots of work.
I have tried to create a table of figures and table of tables in each
individual section and then I am currently cutting and pasting those table of
Figures/ Tables into a
separate table listing except I am getting bookmark not defined as I am no
longer
in the place where I create this list...........
Any suggestions...........

Thanks
Lisa
