Simple MS Word fields question -- driving me crazy

[Nugget]

Overall I'm pretty competent in Word, I think -- autogenerating reference text, using fields, etc. -- but one simple issue is driving me nuts.

I'm trying to automatically insert exhibit letters/numbers in-text so they'll update as I delete or add references, e.g.:

Blah blah blah [see Ex. A] blah blah blahblahblah. Blah blah blah [Ex. B, pp. 34-37]. Also, blah blah [Ex. C].

Updating each letter manually is a giant waste of time when I know there's gotta be a way to do this. Any suggestions?

First question, Word XP, 03 or 07?

It's 2003. There's really a difference?

Anyone? Hello? I'm stuck in the MS-Word dark ages and I can't get out.
