   I am having trouble with references to figures in LaTeX.  I have

  \begin{figure}\label{name}
   ...
   \end{figure}

and later in the document (it's report style, if that matters) I use
\ref{name}.  What I get is the number of the section with the figure,
instead of the number of the figure, even though the caption numbers come
out ok.  Thanks for any help!
