Any way to xref nonHeading styles in Word 2003?
I've created my own versions of Heading2 and Heading3 so that the different
versions (Heading2/Heading2Custom and Heading3/Heading3Custom) can be handled differently during export to a different format (online help). Is there any way -- including macros -- that I can create xrefs to my Heading2Custom and Heading3Custom styles such that those xrefs that will a) incorporate the heading text automatically (as happens when I xref the built-in Heading2 and Heading3) and b) update the heading text automatically if/when that text changes? |

Unless your headings are numbered (in which case they will be "Numbered
items"), you'll have to explicitly bookmark them. That's just one more reason we recommend using the built-in heading styles. See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...ingStyles.html -- Suzanne S.

Hi, Suzanne.
Reading your reply (to always use the built-in Heading styles) made me realize that I can take a couple unused Heading styles, say Heading8 and Heading9, and use them in place of my "custom" versions. I'd like them to modify Heading8 and Heading9 to be at paragraph levels 2 and 3 , but Word doesn't permit that. On consideration, though, I'll give up a tidy Outline View and Document Map to get the automatic xrefs. Thank you very much. Kevin McDonough "Suzanne S.
