hi again,

another question regarding caption and cross-reference if i may.

i have almost completed captioning & cross-referencing the tables and moving
to figures now. i am just wondering whether it is possible to prefix the
numbering by the section or chapter no. e.g. the first table from Chapter 1
would be labelled Table 1.1 while the first figure in Chapter 1 would be
correspondingly lablelled Figure 1.1, and the first table in Chapter 2 would
be labelled Table 2.1 and likewise for the rest of the tables and figures in
the remaining chapters.

i have 'chapterized' my document using Heading 1, 2 and 3 (haven't gone
beyond level 3). when i look-up Caption there is an option to include Chapter
but i am not sure whether it would work the way that i intended rather than
e.g. for the fifth table but first table in chapter two appearing as Table
2.5 (using MS built-in Captioning) when really what i wanted was Table 2.1.

thanks for advice/help again,
jes

ps: i am not sure about the 'net-etiquette' in this situation where
technically this is a new topic/question but principally it is just a
continuation of the previous topic matter whether i should have posted/opened
a new thread. would appreciate a small comment about this as well. thanks.
