Wrapping a Graphic and Caption with Text Outside of a Frame

[Guest]

I am using MS Word 2003 and am wrapping text around a graphic. However, I
need the caption to align under the graphic, be auto numbered, AND be
accounted fot in the Table of Figures being built.

When the graphic and caption are in a frame the caption will not be
recognized for the ToF build.

When they are not in a frame the caption wraps around the graphic.

I have created a style for each, Figure and Figure Caption. Figure does have
the Keep with Next box selected.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much!

Got it.

Captions in a frame *will* be picked up by the Table of Figures. Captions in
a text box are not (except in Word 2007), and a text box is what Word
inserts by default if you click on a wrapped graphic and use Insert |
Reference | Caption.

The secret is to insert both figure and caption In Line With Text, then
select both and use Insert Frame. This command is not on the Insert menu by
default (though you can add it), but there's a button for it on the Forms
toolbar.
