SYMPTOMS
When you use the AutoCaption feature to insert a caption for a Microsoft Equation 3.0 object, the caption indicates that the object is a figure instead of an equation.

To change the default setting so that the caption label correctly indicates that the object is an equation, follow these steps.
 * 1) On the Insert menu, click Caption, and then click AutoCaption.
 * 2) In the AutoCaption dialog box, select the Microsoft Equation 3.0 check box.
 * 3) In the Use label box, click Equation. Or click New Label, and then type a new label.
 * 4) Click OK.

Now, when you insert an Equation Editor object, the caption that you specified automatically appears.
