I am working with WORD2000, I have 2 documents. In doc A, there is a header (like "3.2.1 Example header"), in doc B, I want to cross-refer to the header in doc A (like "See 3.2.1 Example header")

To enter the cross-reference, I do the following
I highlight the entire header in doc A, press CTRL-C to copy, position the mouse pointer in doc B, click the "Edit" menu, select "Paste Special", click the "Paste link" option and select "Unformatted text".

But, .... in doc B, the cross-reference has the incorrect numeration. It appears like "1.1.1 Example header"
How can I get the right numeration in the cross-reference

Thanks for your idea

Click to expand...
Could you please, in Document B, press Alt+F9 to display the field codes? Then copy and paste what oy find between the brackets { } into your reply.
