RE: Table of Contents

Hi Anthony,

We have sorted out most of the queries regarding the document now but we still have one question. We have some paragraphs which are numbered at level 2 but instead of a heading they have text. We would like the table of contents to include the level 2 headings but obviously not where it is text only. We cannot seem to find the correct style to do this. Somebody suggested para text or heading 2 text but we don't seem to have this on our styles and if we make our own they do not stay! Any ideas as to what an alternative style would be correct. In the meantime am also contacting our IT dept to see who created the styles but not having much success in explaining to our boss why it won't look how she wants it to!

If there is any poss you could give me a quick call on this at some point would be extremely grateful.

Sharon

RE: Table of Contents

Hi Sharon,

Thank you for your response.

It sounds like you need to only use Heading1,2,3 and 4 styles on items that appear in the table of contents.

The other text can be formatted with your own Styles.

You could create a new style from scratch or base it on an existing one. You can then apply this style to the other text. This should ensure that the text will not appear in the TOC.

I hope this helps.

Regards

Simon
