embedding a binder number in the page number so the TOC picks it u
Hi
I am using Word 2003. I am trying to create a page number in the footer that will have a binder number (not a chapter number) in the page number so that it can be pulled into the TOC. For example, in binder VI of the proposal, the page number would be VI-i, VI-1, etc. If I just put the VI in the footer, then it does not pick up in the TOC (I know I can hack the TOC and put it in, but then that causes more problems when I PDF it sometimes). Suggestions greatly appreciated Karen Pittsburgh |

You need to use the Heading 1 Style for the Binder Number.

Thanks for the responses.
I understand using the heading 1 - I can successfully put that into the header where I want it so it reads Volume I, II, III, etc. But when I try to format the page number in the footer and reference back to this "chapter number" via heading 1, it does not seem to recognize it. It tells me to create a chapter number.... Does it not recognize a "chapter number" in the header?? "klhtrain" wrote: Hi I am using Word 2003.

Did you apply outline numbering to the Heading 1 style (see
http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...mbering.html)? Is there text in the document body using the style? Both of these conditions are required. Note that if you don't want the number to be visible in the document body, you can format the outline number as hidden. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "klhtrain" wrote in message ...
