Reference list numbering not updating when I remove in text citation in word

zshahzad
Hi!I'm editing a paper I wrote which has vancouver style citations (numbered).I want to remove a few citations but whenever I do so, the reference list does not reflect the change as in the numbers are not updated (e.g: if i remove citation 2, the reference 2 in the reference list does not get removed and reference 3 does not become reference 2).Even in the text, the next citation does not automatically assume the number of the citation deleted.Would appreciate any help!thanks.
