Thread: linked styles

Hello,

I am trying to link some custom sytle together and am having problems.

I have been given a document to re-format (Word 97!). I have created a custom heading i.e.
1. Title
1.1 Sub title
1.1.1. etc...

I want to insert a 'figure x.x.x' title to all figures and would like them to have a parent of teh previous heading. For example, a figure in section 3.7.5 would be figure 3.7.5.

If I link the style to the 'heading 3' style and accept and apply, it resets and loses the link.

Any ideas?

Was tempted to havd fig 1, 2 etc but then think it seems weird that figure one would appear in section 3!

Thanks in advance.

Damien

The following works in Word 2003, not too sure about 2000:

Insert - Reference - Caption - click Numbering
tick Include chapter number
specify the heading for the chapter
