From: page number is inactive on 5 May 2010 12:31 I want to refer to two figures, for example say "in Figures 1 and 2..." when I use cross-reference, there seems to be no way rather than writting "in Figure 1 and Figure 2...." I tried to delete second "Figure" manually, but when I update the field it comes back. Any suggestions? thank you
From: Stefan Blom on 5 May 2010 13:35 You could manually add a bookmark around the numbers and then cross-reference the bookmark text. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via NNTP) "page number is inactive" <pagenumberisinactive(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:88D6C848-C6F9-4CB7-A5B7-6D3492A8BF2F(a)microsoft.com... >I want to refer to two figures, for example say "in Figures 1 and 2..." when > I use cross-reference, there seems to be no way rather than writting "in > Figure 1 and Figure 2...." > > I tried to delete second "Figure" manually, but when I update the field it > comes back. > > Any suggestions? > > thank you

From: Stefan Blom on 6 May 2010 02:58 "The brilliant way" is certainly... well, brilliant. :-) I find that redefining the hidden bookmark ("the kludgy workaround") isn't as reliable in Word 2007 as it used to be in earlier versions. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via NNTP) "Suzanne S.
