title: Link Field code in MS Word and automatic numbering
body: <p>I have a document in Microsoft Word (2013 on Windows 8.1) with a numbered list (simple list numbering) from 1. to ~300. Within this same document, I used cross-references to refer to specific list elements by number.</p>
  
  <p>In a separate Word document, I use the <a href="https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Field-codes-Link-field-09422d50-cde0-4b77-bca7-6a8b8e2cddbd?ui=en-US&amp;rs=en-US&amp;ad=US&amp;fromAR=1" rel="nofollow">{Link} field code</a> to refer to my list element using bookmarks.</p>
  
  <p>However, when using the {Link} field Code, all numbering shows as "1.", and not the actual given number for the list element.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to fix this occurence, short of <a href="http://wordribbon.tips.net/T010248_Converting_Automatic_Numbering_to_Manual_Numbering.html" rel="nofollow">converting all the automatic numbering to text</a>?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for your insight,</p>
