Default table of contents page numbers without chapter numbers

This means that the chapter number has been typed in manually. To include
chapter numbering in the page number, you must use the "Include chapter
number" option in the Page Number dialog (and this requires that the chapter
number must occur in an autonumbered paragraph in one of Word's built-in
heading styles). See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Numbering/ChapterNumber.htm

Hi, I am having a similar problem (although I would like the chapter-page

#
to show up on my TOC. When I press Alt+F9, I get 1-{PAGE}

Am I on the right track??
Thanks!

Is this true even when you update the TOC? If so, View | Header and

Footer
and Show Next to get to one of the chapters where the page number is not
being displayed correctly. Press Alt+F9. Does the entire page number
(chapter number and all) resolve to { PAGE }, or is there an additional
field or text in front of the PAGE field?

I did not type in chapter numbers manually. I checked the include

chapter
number box in the format page number dialog, so all pages in my

document
have
the chapter number included in the page number. But, several in the

table
of
contents are missing chapter numbers, while several others have

chapter
numbers. I can't see why all pages would have the chapter numbers

included
on the page, but they do not show up on the TOC. Any ideas?

You won't see chapter numbers in the TOC unless you used the

"Include
chapter number" feature in the Format Page Number dialog. Chapter

numbers
inserted in the header/footer manually will not show up.

I have a document that I created. All the pages have been set up

to
have
the
chapter number included in the page numbering. When I go to

update
the
table
of contents, some of the page numbers in the table of contents do

not
have
the chapter number. What could be wrong. All the individual

pages
have
the
chapter number on them where I put the page number, but chapter

numbers
are
missing on the table of contents.
