Well... you have to be aware that caption labels are stored in the
Normal.dot template and do NOT travel with the document. So what you
propose is going to be difficult to maintain.
My inclination would be to store each "caption label" as an AutoText
entry in a template that is linked to (and travels with) the document,
instead. You could place these on a toolbar in order to insert them
quickly and easily (AutoText can be assigned directly to toolbar buttons
in Tools/Customize/Commands)

Thanks Cindy; I wasn't aware the caption labels travelled with th
Normal.dot template so will need to rethink the whole concept.
Appreciate your advise regarding AutoText but think it will not wor
well for me as I'm then looking at combining AutoText with Fields, etc
etc.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge in any case.
