Hi Tom
This is interesting. Did you follow the instructions at http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindy...r/LangFmt.htm? If you create a new document based on nomal.dot, what language is the Normal style in? Shauna Shauna Kelly. Microsoft MVP. http://www.shaunakelly.com/word "Tom G." t wrote in message ... Shauna, If I look at each TOC style, I see that each one is based on the Normal style. My Normal style has Saudi Arabian Arabic as a complex script. I think that that's the problem. I can't find where I can get rid of it. Thanks, Tom "Shauna Kelly" wrote in message ... Hi Tom It is possible that no-one has provided a response to you because no-one is sure of the answer. My guess is that it has something to do with right to left languages. Follow the instructions on this page: http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister/LangFmt.htm And, make sure that your whole document is formatted in a left to right language. In particular, make sure that the TOC styles are in a left to right language. To do that, put your cursor in the table of contents. Insert Reference Index and Tables. In the Formats box, make sure it says "From Template". Click Modify and modify each TOC style to check its language. And then update the TOC. If this solves the problem, and if you have the same problems with every document you create, then you'll need to make the same modifications in normal.dot. For information on how to do that, see Why is my "Blank Document" not blank? http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/AppErr...ocNotBlank.htm Hope this helps. Shauna Kelly.

Can anyone tell me why? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... You should get together with the user who is *trying* to format a TOC that way! -- Suzanne S.

"Tom G." t wrote in message ... I am having a lot of trouble creating a simple table of contents. I have tagged relevant headings using the correct styles. However, when I create the table of contents, everything is "right to left." In other words an entry such as Introduction .... 5 reads 5 ..... Introduction Help! -- cheers, Tom G |
