= SUMMARY =

On page 265 of the “Using Microsoft Word” version 5.00 manual, under the section titled “To make a cross-reference to an item in a series,” step 2 incorrectly states the following:

Type the series code name, followed by the bookmark name.

This step should read:

Type the series code name, followed by a colon and the bookmark name.

If the colon is omitted, pressing F3 to enclose the series code name and bookmark in parentheses will result in the Word error message “Glossary entry does not exist.”

The examples that appear on page 265 of the “Using Microsoft Word” version 5.00 manual correctly display a cross reference to a series code name.

Page 254 of the “Using Microsoft Word” version 5.00 manual correctly states to insert a colon in the cross-referencing instructions. The examples following these instructions are also correct.
