What happened to my question
yesterday I posted a question about the document map in Word 2007 and I
subsequently received an email notification telling me someone has replied to it. But when I click the link in the email it sends me to a blank web page with a very long link in the URL field. So I tried to find my message manually but it seems to have disappeared now. I am very new to the Word discussion groups but very familiar with other discussion groups. Any ideas? Wonder if the same thing will happen with this message. If I don't respond or thank anyone for helping me it may be because I cannot. |

What happened to my question
Here is your original post and the response that was made to it:
"Stefan Blom" wrote in message ... As far as I know, there is no bug that prevents paragraphs from showing up in the document map (rather, in some versions, too many paragraphs are shown because they are incorrectly assigned outline levels). Are you sure that your headings have the correct outline levels specified? The easiest way to accomplish that is by using the built-in heading styles. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "2e" wrote in message ... I'm in Windows XP using word 2007. I'm working with a big complicated document and need to have effective navigation. The bookmarks system would be fine but you can't keep it open all the time in its own pane. So I found what ought to be the ideal alternative in document map which you can keep open all the time alongside the document window. I formatted the document with styled headings as explained in the help etc. and requested the map to show headings to level 1 and level 2. It shows one or two headings but ignores most of them.
