Parameters

ReferenceType
Type: System.Object%
The type of item for which a cross-reference is to be inserted. Can be any WdReferenceType or WdCaptionLabelID constant or a user defined caption label.

ReferenceKind
Type: Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdReferenceKind
The information to be included in the cross-reference.

ReferenceItem
Type: System.Object%
If ReferenceType is wdRefTypeBookmark, this argument specifies a bookmark name. For all other ReferenceType values, this argument specifies the item number or name in the Reference type box in the Cross-reference dialog box. Use the GetCrossReferenceItems method to return a list of item names that can be used with this argument.

InsertAsHyperlink
Type: System.Object%
true to insert the cross-reference as a hyperlink to the referenced item; otherwise, false.

IncludePosition
Type: System.Object%
true to insert above or below, depending on the location of the reference item in relation to the cross-reference.

SeparateNumbers
Type: System.Object%
true to use a separator to separate the numbers from the associated text. (Use only if the ReferenceType parameter is set to wdRefTypeNumberedItem and the ReferenceKind parameter is set to wdNumberFullContext.)

SeparatorString
Type: System.Object%
Specifies the string to use as a separator if the SeparateNumbers parameter is set to true.

Remarks

If you specify wdPageNumber for the value of ReferenceKind, you might need to repaginate the document in order to see the correct cross-reference information.

Optional Parameters

Examples

The following code example adds a heading and text to the document using Bookmark controls and then inserts a cross-reference to the heading text.

This example is for a document-level customization.

Private Sub BookmarkInsertCrossReference()
    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()
    Me.Paragraphs(1).Range.InsertParagraphBefore()

    Dim Bookmark1 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Bookmark = _
        Me.Controls.AddBookmark(Me.Paragraphs(1).Range, "Bookmark1")
    Bookmark1.Text = "Heading of Document"
    Bookmark1.Style = "Heading 1"
    Bookmark1.Delete()

    Dim Bookmark2 As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Bookmark = _
        Me.Controls.AddBookmark(Me.Paragraphs(2).Range, "Bookmark2")
    Bookmark2.Text = "This is sample bookmark text: "

    Bookmark2.Words.Last.InsertCrossReference("Heading", _
        Word.WdReferenceKind.wdContentText, "1", True, _
        False, False, " ")

End Sub

private void BookmarkInsertCrossReference()
{
    this.Paragraphs[1].Range.InsertParagraphBefore();
    this.Paragraphs[1].Range.InsertParagraphBefore();

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Bookmark bookmark1 =
        this.Controls.AddBookmark(this.Paragraphs[1].Range,
        "bookmark1");
    bookmark1.Text = "Heading of Document";
    bookmark1.Style = "Heading 1";
    bookmark1.Delete();

    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word.Bookmark bookmark2 =
        this.Controls.AddBookmark(this.Paragraphs[2].Range,
        "bookmark2");
    bookmark2.Text = "This is sample bookmark text: ";

    object ReferenceType = "Heading";
    object ReferenceItem = "1";
    object InsertAsHyperlink = true;
    object IncludePosition = false;
    object SeparateNumbers = false;
    object SeparatorString = " ";

    bookmark2.Words.Last.InsertCrossReference(ref ReferenceType,
        Word.WdReferenceKind.wdContentText, ref ReferenceItem, 
        ref InsertAsHyperlink, ref IncludePosition,
        ref SeparateNumbers, ref SeparatorString);
