Partial Heading text to show up as cross-reference
Hi, I have set up heading accordingly using styles for TOC, e.g. Note 1 ABC Note 2 EFG Note 3 XQY In my body text in other pages, I need to write a sentence like " xxxxx (see note 1 and 3)."...
How about this:
- Place your cursor where you want the reference (e.g., after “see note”).
- Go to the References tab in the Ribbon.
- Click Cross-reference.
- In the dialog box:
- Reference type: Select Heading.
- Insert reference to: Choose Heading number or Heading number (no context).
- For which heading: Select the heading you want (e.g., “Note 1 ABC”).
- Insert as hyperlink: Make sure this box is checked.
- Click Insert.
- Repeat for each note number you want to reference.

Thank you! I played around a bit and realise that I have forgotten to set numbering format in the heading. Once I set it right, I will get the correct heading number in the cross reference!
