Word 2003 'Insert Style Separator' Feature
This feature is supposed to split a paragraph into two separate styles so
only the first style, in this case Heading #, appears in the Table of Contents. Microsoft seems to think it is only used when people are typing a new document. HOWEVER If there is already text beyond the point where you want to insert the Separator, the feature doesn't work. It stays the same style. Or worse yet, it puts both parts of the paragraph in the TOC as separate entries. In the Legal Community this is a critical issue. We can no longer use a 'hidden' paragraph marker, because it is considered metadata and will be stripped. Can anyone out there enlighten me? This is not an easy issue to explain. |

It's clumsy, but not so hard to work around:
1. Insert ordinary paragraph marks before and after the target text. 2. Select each of the inserted paragraph marks in turn and click the Style Separator button. 3. Click within the target text and set the style you want. "Sue Hughes" wrote in message ...
