Barely.  In fact, Word 4 is busy compiling a list of figures in a
document of mine as I write this.  The figure captions are done by using
table-of-contents level 9 as the hidden-text tag. Then its real easy (I
didn't say intuitively obvious) to use Table of Contents on levels 9
through 9 to generate (or regenerate) the table of figures.  Piece of
(slightly stale) cake.

Now as to referring to figures whose numbers move around a lot, I dunno.
I think you'll have to mail merge them.  Why not use Word the way it was
designed? :-) A picture is worth a thousand words, so start typing ...
