I'm having a couple of problems with table of contents. I have an old one
that refers to multiple documents. But when I open it and push F9 to update
it, it says "Error! Cannot open file referenced on page 4". When I go ALT-F9
to see my fields, all of the RD fields are gone and only the first TOC field
is there.
So I tried to make a new TOC in a blank document. I went
Insert-Reference-Index&Tables and inserted a field that says {TOC\o"1-2"\h \z
\u}. Then I pushed CTRL-F9 to enter a RD field. It gives me the brackets with
the grey shading, and it lets me type R, but as soon as I type D the whole
field disappears. If I type anything other than D after the R, the field
stays. How am I supposed to enter a reference document?
Word automatically formats RD fields as Hidden text. As soon as you type the D,
the whole field becomes hidden.
To work with the fields, display nonprinting characters (including hidden text)
by clicking the ¶ button or pressing the Ctrl+Shift+8 shortcut. Repeat to turn
them off.
