"Cite" figure in the text and create a separate "bibliography" for figure captions

Hi,

in a Word document, I want to “cite” figure numbers, something like “bla bla bla (Fig. 1), bla bla bla (Fig. 2)” and have at the end of the document the list of figure captions:

for instance,

"Figure 1. bla bla.

Figure 2. bla bla."

The idea is to be able to update the figure numbers automatically or instance if I add a figure between 1 and 2.

I could do that from the library I use for citing article references, but in this case, the format of citing wouldn’t be what I need, and the figure caption would IN the reference list, instead of a separate figure caption list.

Can anyone help, please?

Thanks

Tony
