I'm having a problem using the \ref command with LATEX tables. I start the 
table using

\begin{table}
\label{tname}
...

then refer to it in the text as \ref{tname}. However, this often either gives
me the wrong number, or even a section number (e.g. 4.2.1), which is not
what I want. This is the way I use \label in equations, sections etc, and
it always works. What's wrong here?

Thanks for any suggestions
