Once more, I found a useful tip and I'm documenting it here so I can easily find it again. This time, the tip is about adding chapter numbers to Table and Figure captions in MS Word.
Normally, a Caption is entered sequentially, like this:
Chapter 1
Table 1
Table 2
Figure 1
Table 3
Chapter 2
Figure 2
Table 4
Table 5
Figure 3
But, when using an engineering-style document with numbered chapters, sometimes you need a more formal method of numbering things:
1.0 Chapter Header
Table 1-1
Table 1-2
Figure 1-1
Table 1-3
2.0 Chapter
Figure 2-1
Table 2-1
Table 2-2
Figure 2-2
The info on how to do this is in this short-and-simple video:
