I am trying to create a Table of Contents for a large document. This TOC
should contain 3 levels (Chapters/paragraphs/sub-paragraphs), which is no
problem. The problem concerns the 2 types of chapter titles I use: type A,
which should include a chapter number (e.g. 1. Introduction) and type B,
which does not include a number (e.g. Refences). In my document, due to the
layout, none of my actual chapter titles contains a number (chapter numbers
for type A are not displayed on the same line as the chapter titles). In the
TOC, however, titles of type A should be equipped with a number and titles of
type B should not. Both types of titles should appear on the same level
though.
Example:
----------
1. Introduction...................................1
1.1 Problem Description.................1
1.2 Objective................................2
1.3 Outline...................................2

Refences.......................................... .3
----------

Can anybody give me a suggestion on how to achieve this in Word 2003?

Thanx,
Ron

The quickest solution would be to use a different TOC style for both
your "level 1 types" of headings. This will only work when you have used
two styles in the main body.

Then you can either

- number the style for type A directly (it's a hack, in a way, but
should work well enough), or

- make the numbering part of the same entry in the main text (separating
it with a SHIFT-Return, which will translate into a space in the TOC).

Offline-help explains all necessary TOC switches.

The way I handle this is to use two different styles for the numbered and
unnumbered headings (regardless of how they're numbered), say Heading 1 for
the "numbered" ones and FrontMatter for the unnumbered ones. Then map these
styles to, say, TOC 1 and TOC 3. Add numbers to the TOC 1 style and modify
TOC 3 to match TOC 1 except for the numbering. For more on this, see

parts of that article).
