Cross References

With Nota Bene, you can refer to a place in your document, and Nota Bene will enter the correct page number (or footnote number or other counter number). For example, suppose you want to write "See the section on Travel in Guyana on page 361"; but you aren't sure that this section will stay on page 361. You can insert a non-printing reference label at the beginning of the section on Travel in Guyana , and then create a cross reference that will automatically insert the page number that corresponds to the non-printing reference label. To use cross references, one of Nota Bene's numbering functions must be active in the document (page numbering, footnotes, or counters that are used for numbered lists, outline numbers, or chapter numbers).

•

Insert a label. The label is a unique name that tags the passage so you can track its page, chapter, footnote and counter number. A label can be inserted in the text or in a counter. Inserting a label in a counter is useful if you want your cross reference to say something like "see point number 6."

•	Create a cross reference to refer to the point in the document where the label has been inserted.

1	Move your cursor to the point in the document where the non-printing label will be inserted.

2	Click Insert, Reference Label or press Alt+R. The Cross References Dialog Bar will appear on your screen.

This will insert an LB command in your document which can be seen in Show Codes view: LB. If markers are on, a blue dot will show the presence of this command in Page Layout view. If you have inserted the label in a counter (C0 to C14) the label will appear within the counter rather than in an LB command. The following are examples of how a text label and a counter label would appear in Show Codes view: «LBtravel» and «C11travel»

A label in a footnote/endnote must be placed at the beginning of the note. You can only have a single label in a note.

Make sure that the appropriate counters are in place in your document (e.g., chapter or page number or any number to which you plan to refer). Place the cursor at the point where you want the appropriate number inserted and type the text of your referral statement. For example, you might want to type the following text, and position your cursor after the space and before the period:

2	Click Insert, Cross References or press Alt+R. The Cross References Dialog Bar will appear on your screen.

3	Click on one of the labels listed in the View/Edit/Select Existing Label section.

Once the cross reference has been created, it will appear on-screen in green, but it will print in black. You can double-click on the cross reference to go to the point in the document where the label was inserted.

The Cross References dialog includes the Label (for Cross References) dialog that is used in step I, and it can also be used to insert a label or to edit an existing label. For those who prefer the keyboard to the mouse, Alt+F6 will move your cursor back and forth between this open dialog and your open document.
