Hi Shauna,

Thanks for the time you put into this. I actually tried the threee
paragraph suggestion you used above starting from the top using Print View.
No luck. Who knows maybe someone will come up with a work around solution.

All the best,

Monte M.

Hi Matt

I tried to look to see what settings might affect this. I discovered two
things. First, if I start off in Normal View, then it doesn't work. Second,
if I start in Print Layout view, and then change the View from Print Layout
to Normal and back, then the effect disappeared. That is, once I changed the
View, I could no longer see the hidden text in the Document Map.

So it doesn't look like a very stable proposition.

Hope this helps.

Shauna,

Thanks for the clear advice. Unfortunately, it's not working. I wonder
if
there is some setting I need to change to be able to achieve it.

The scenario that you are getting is exactly what I am looking to do.

Thanks!
Matt

Suzanne, Matt

That's not what I see. Here's what I did:

Create a new document.
Turn on the Document Map.
Put 3 short paragraphs of text into the document.
Apply Heading 1 style to the first paragraph, Heading 2 style to the
second
paragraph, Body Text to the third paragraph.
Observe that the Document Map shows the Heading 1 and Heading 2
paragraphs.
Modify the Heading 2 style so it is hidden.

What I see in the Document Map is the Heading 1 text, shown as normal,
and
the Heading 2 text with a dotted underline.

Is that not what you see?

Hope this helps.

FWIW, in Word 2003, if I format a heading as Hidden, it disappears from
the
Document Map immediately, even if I have Hidden text displayed in the
document (just the opposite of what the OP wants).

Hi Matt

What steps are you taking to hide the headings in the document? And
what
version of Word do you have?

Hope this helps.

Hi Shauna,

thanks for your response!

I want the headings to be hidden both on the screen and on the
paper,
but
I
want the headings to appear in the document map.

Based on what you wrote, it sounds like you are saying that I could
hide
the
heading and still be able to see the heading in the Document Map.
However,
when I hide the headings, I don't see them at all in the Document
Map.
Do
you have any idea what I am doing incorrectly so that I can't see
them
in
the
Document map?

Thanks!
Matt

Hi montgomerymouse

It's not clear whether you want to hide the headings on the screen,
or
on
paper. Depending on what you need, modify the heading styles so
they
have
white text, or are hidden. The Document Map will display white text
in
the
ordinary way; the Document Map will display hidden text with a
dotted
underline. In either case, you'll have to be very careful that you
don't
accidentally type over the headings, or put text in the wrong spot.

Hope this helps.

I'm using Word 2002 on a Windows XP system.

I love the ability to jump around a very large document using the
Document
Map view.

I need to be able to hide those headings, however, in the
document.
Currently, when I hide the headings, they disappear from the
document.

Can anyone tell me a way that I can see various headings in the
Document
Map
without the headings appearing in the document?

Much thanks!
