Is there a way to keep a caption on the same page as the figure
I have a figure/drawing, and a caption that I need to keep togther (on the
same page, and with no other text in between them). The caption was generated with the "insert caption" option, and has field codes that automatically generate the figure #. Otherwise I'd use a text box and place it within the drawing or group it. I've looked everywhere on-line without any success. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! |

Nothing to stop you putting field codes into a text box.

I have two suggestions:
1 Create a new style (potentially based off of Normal or Body Text). Modify the style Paragraph property to include "Keep with next." Assign this style to your image. Your caption, by default, will be below the image and Word will endeavor to keep both of those items together. 2 Make a large, one-celled table. Insert your image in the table and insert the caption in the same cell. See if either of those help.

And if you choose option (2), make sure that the row is not allowed to
