Use

Input | Create Automatic Numbering Object ...

then select the couter type you want to insert.

If you add a tag to a cell (Find | Add/Remove Cell Tags...), then you can 
use this approach to insert the value of the counter at a tagged location 
(rather than the current location), i.e. you can build cross-references.
