Creating a Table of Contents on a Separate Word Doc
Currently, I have four word documents, each one its own table of contents.
I would like to create a "Master" table of contents that combines the four documents (even though these four documents are separate). Is this possible to do? Thanks! |

If you intend that the separate document should show four separate TOCs, each a copy of the one in its original document, then place a bookmark to enclose the TOC in each original document. Use IncludeText fields (containing the bookmark names) to display copies of them in the combined document. If what you want is a single TOC covering all four documents, then at the beginning of the separate document, insert an RD field (RD stands for "Referenced Document") for each of the other files. Then insert the table of contents. If you want the page numbers to run continuously through the combined TOC, you'll have to set the starting page number manually in each document except the first -- otherwise the TOC will show page numbers that restart at 1 for each document (or maybe that's what you want?). -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

will this work even though each individual document has its own TOC?
