Fields within fields that cross-ref to other fields and do not upd

I have a 'parent' document document with several 'children' and the 'parent'
will eventually be placed in a 'parent' of its own, a 'grandparent' so to
speak. The problem is that one of the cross-references in the child to a
caption will not update.

The caption is formatted as "Figure {Heading1 #}-{Figure #}: text" and no
Heading1 is available in the child, producing an error:"Figure Error! No text
of specified style in document." at both the cross-ref and the caption.
When viewed in the parent, the caption updates to display the Heading1
number it is placed under, but the cross-reference keeps displaying the error.

Alright, after trying some more it seems the field IS updated, but that this
is not displayed properly. When I went into print preview the field was shown
just as it should be, so its now not so much a referencing problem as it is a
display bug...
