A computer-implemented method, computer program product, and computing system is provided for creating and managing internal cross-references within a hierarchically structured document. In an implementation, a method may include identifying a cross-reference target within a hierarchically structured document. The method may also include determining one or more components of the cross-reference based upon, at least in part, a hierarchical location of the cross-reference target within the hierarchically structured document. The method may further include creating a cross-reference based upon, at least in part, the components of the cross-reference.
