Thank you for the answers to my problem. When under "\placefigure" I added [ ] in front of the brackets containing the reference name, it worked. I thought that if you didn't want to specify anything (such as "here"), one could leave it out entirely. That shows you the kind of problems beginners are facing.
afaik \placefigure is the only command with this problem: two optional args, one eing the reference; since there is no way to find out that 'here' or 'left' is a reference or a placement directive, in the case of a reference, one needs to provide a location as well sorry for the confusion Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
