Heather: I hope I'm not misunderstanding your question, but I think the answer is simple: Put your captions in a text frame inside the anchored frame. FrameMaker will treat this text as part of the main flow for purposes of autonumbering, cross-referencing, etc. (the autonumber will be based on the position of the anchored frame's anchor), and the position of the caption relative to the graphic or table will stay fixed, regardless of where the frame ends up in your final layout. This is how we do all our figure captions in my shop, and captions for any tables that are something other than "real" FrameMaker tables. Enjoy! -Bill
