cross references and accepting all changes

[zip]

Hi, I have a document with cross references throughout. When I accept all
tracked changes, all of the cross references when clicked take you to the
first page. Pressing Ctrl A+F9 afterwards does not fix them.

Any help would be great.
Thanks'

Hi Jacqueline,

Did any of the ranges with tracked changes have bookmarks in them? If so, that could be a problem for cross-references to those
ranges, especially if deletions are involved.

Hi macropod

I have searched and there are no bookmarks in my document. The cross
references are in tables which cross reference bulleted numbers in other
table rows. Such as below

1. Does the query need to be referred to the Helpdesk?
2. If yes, go to step 22

22. Do this.

Upon accepting tracked changes in other parts of the document it ruins the
table cross references also.

Hi Zip,

For what you're describing, Word will be using it's own bookmarking, which you can see if you go to Insert|Bookmark and check the
'hidden bookmarks' option. Sinilarly, if you select one of your cross-references and press Shift-F9, you'll see something like {REF
_REF123456 \h}, where '_REF123456' is the bookmark name. If the \h isn't there, add it, press F9 then doub;e-click the
cross-referfence to go to its source (before accepting the tracked changes). If it's pointing to a tracked deletion, that's the
source of your problem - the 'new' table will have a different bookmar (if any) and, once you accept the tracked changes, your old
bookmark will most likely be deleted.
