Thanks. That looks like just what I need. I will try it later as latex is playing up atm when trying to install packages
edit: I'm trying to install the caption package but the automatic updater in MikTex isn't working atm so I'm trying to do it manually. I am following this guide http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Packages/Installing_Extra_Packages and I have completed steps 1 and 2 but I can't work out where I'm meant to put the files I have created. It says to put them in the local directory texmf-local/tex/latex/ but I can't find any such directory. I have a MikTex folder in appdata/local/miktex/2.8/miktex/fmt but it doesn't have a latex folder in and there is also something in appdata/roaming so I'm a little confused as to where to put it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
