Re: Word 2007 cross-references

["Gene Kim-Eng" <techwr -at- genek -dot- com>]

I consider it an annoyance anytime Word automatically formats anything without 
my actually telling it to by selecting a style tag or using manual formatting. 
I can see circumstances in which I might want my cross-references to be jumps so 
I can visually confirm that they point to the right places while I'm working on 
the docs, but I still don't want them reformatting themselves in my printed docs 
or pdfs that are going to a print vendor.  Any automatic formatting that is not 
an optional choice that can be easily turned off at will is something I don't 
want in a word processor.
