Hello,
Yes, thank you for the link to the article, I read that article before and
tried the steps but it still is not coming out right. I guess it could either
be something I am not doing right or because the document I am trying to
format has been worked on many times by numerous people so there is no
telling what other formatting codes could be causing the problem! So I may
just take all the page numbering off and try all over again to see what the
problem is. Thank you for your help with my issue.

Did you read the article I referred you to? In order to include a chapter
number in your page number, the chapter number must be the autonumber of a
paragraph in one of the built-in heading styles.

Thank you for responding, it seems I am having difficultly with that very
feature "include chapter number". Every time I mark the checkbox to use

the
chapter numbers, I get the message that "there is no chapter number to
include in the caption or page number . . ." It tells me to use the

Bullets
and Numbering command to do that, and I believe that is where my problem
begins. I am not sure what it means when they want you to link the heading
styles to numbering? Perhaps I am making this harder than it truly is

and
my understanding of this feature may be wrong, but I am not sure how to go
about doing this. I applied styles and everything else in the TOC is

correct
except for the page numbering. My page numbering is showing up as I wish

in
the text in this format (1-10) but I do not understand the concept of
getting the page numbers to show up that way in the TOC. Any other

assistance
would be greatly appreciated!

The TOC will not include chapter numbers unless they have been made part

the page number using the "Include chapter number" feature. See

Hello,
I am having a tough time figuring out why the page numbers in my TOC

are
not
showing up correctly. I thought I was pretty Word savvy but I do not

know
what it is that I am doing wrong. I am formatting a policy manual at

my
job
and they want the page numbers to be formatted as such; 1-10 meaning
Chapter
1 page 10. The numbers show up correctly in the manual but when I

generate
a
TOC it just shows the page numbers as 1, 2, 3, etc. I have looked at

some
articles on Shauna Kelly's site but my numbering is still not correct.

If
anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this I would really

appreciate
any
guidance!
Thank you,
Thelisha Woods
