Hi,

is there a way to add the usage of a table/reference in the caption of the reference/table in latex?

For example:

\begin{table}
    \begin{tabular}{ll}
    \textbf{Name} & \textbf{Description} \\
        Foo & bar \\
        Foo & bar
    \end{tabular}
    \caption{Nice Table. Used on pages [2,3,4].}
    \label{tab:table}
\end{table}

I would like the "Used on pages[2,3,4]." to appear automatically and linked to the correct reference, to all the locations in the document that use \ref{tab:table}.

Anyone knows a package that takes care of this?

Thank you very much.

Have a look at the backrefx package.

i looked at backref but isn't it only for bibliographic entries? i don't see how it could be used for just any \label
