I have a document with several figures that are placed in
text boxes. The caption are below the figures in the text
boxes. In the text, I have numerous cross references to
these figures. All looks good until I use Print Preview,
after which the reference in the text to the various
figures all say: ERROR! Reference source not found.
What is going on? This USED to work....

Hi, EK. Convert the text boxes to frames. Then it should work.

I agree-- it SHOULD work, but it did not, even after I
converted the text boxes to frames. As soon as I used the
print preview, the cross references to the figures were
converted to the dreaded "Error! Reference source not
found". I even re-installed OFFICE, but to no avail.
