I need a way to keep multiple auto-numbered headers and refer to them in text
I'm working on a document that needs multiple headers are autonumbered. And I would like to be able to go back and insert and have all the same headings update when I do so, and I'd like to be able to reference these numbers within the text.
It is a mathematics document, so for example I will have three definitions, one exercise, another definition, two Figures and another exercise. So it would look like Definition 1 Definition 2 Definition 3 Exercise 1 Definition 4 Figure 1 Figure 2 Exercise 2 Then I'd like to be able to refer to the different Figures by number within the text, and ideally should I chose to delete or add a figure, all numbers would update including the references within the text. |

You'll need to create a caption label for each type of caption, then use
Insert | Caption to insert them. Cross-references to defined captions (through Insert | Cross-reference) are simple. -- Suzanne S.
