Field codes: RD (Referenced Document) field

Microsoft Office Word 2003

Paragraph mark Button image.

Security  Because content that is formatted as hidden text can easily be made visible, do not use hidden text formatting to keep sensitive information private.

Note  RD fields that reference a series of files must be in the same order as the files in the final document. For example, files Chap1 and Chap2 both have an index entry for "apricot" on the first page. The first page number in Chap1 is 1, and the first page number in Chap2 is 100.

  • The sequence {RD Chap2} {RD Chap1} results in the index query "apricot 100, 1".

  • The sequence {RD Chap1} {RD Chap2} results in the index query "apricot 1, 100".
