How to create Tables and Graph Captions lists

L

Lamb chop

I am working on a large document about 200pages. It contains a lot of
graphs and tables.

I would like to create a list of tables which captures all the captions of
the tables.

Something like this:

Figure 2.2.1.1.5 A photo showing the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability [Taken
from An Album of Fluid Motion, assembled by Milton Van Dyke, The Parabolic
Press]

Figure 2.2.1.3.1 Mietz et al.¡¦s model on slag emulsification in steel
ladles [Taken from J.Mietz et al., Emulsification and mass transfer in ladle
metallurgy, Steel Research 62, 1991, No. 1, p11]

Figure 2.2.1.5.1 Reaction path of droplet generation and the energy
difference between Asai¡¦s model and Emi¡¦s suggestion



and a list of graph caption similar to this:

List of Tables

Table 2.2.1.4.1 Comparison of the entrainment velocities and critical
droplet radius from KH, Asai and Mietz theories

Table 2.2.4.1 Comparing the critical Weber from Asai¡¦s equation for high
temperature and aqueous systems.

Table 2.2.5.1 Summary of the reviewed droplet generation criteria



====

It was quite a headache to change the caption of the actual text and then
change the list of the content in the front.

At the moment I am doing this in manual but as the document getting bigger
and bigger, I have trouble to tracking it down.

I am using office2007 under vista.

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

You can use Insert | Caption to insert the captions and then use Insert |
Reference | Index and Tables: Table of Figures to create a list of figures
or tables (you choose the caption label).
