2nd Table of Contents
I know that I can insert a second Table of Contents within the same document.
However, I saw in one document that the second Table of Contents only showed the headings of that section. So in the first section I can see the complete Table of Contents e.g. 1. 1.1 2. 2.1 3. 3.1 etc. In the second section I only see 2. 2.1 2.1.1 2.2 2.2.1 etc. Is there a special trick how to achieve this? My suspicion is that the author has deleted all other parts of the second Table of Contents except 2.1..., however, it is very annoying every time I update the table as I get the whole list again. Any ideas? Regards Nicole |

2nd Table of Contents
Hi Nicole,
Insert a bookmark to enclose each section, and then use the \b switch in the corresponding TOC field to limit it to that bookmark.

http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/TOCSwitches.htm In particular, see "partial table of contents" in the second linked article. You would be using the \b switch, having bookmarked your particular section with a bookmark name. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
