Adding Multi-Level numbering to Table of Contents
In Word 2007, is it possible to generate a Table of Contents (using the
normal method via the References tab) and also assign multi-level numbering to the different text levels (i.e. assign Roman Numerals to the first level items, then assign lowercase a,b,c letters to all second level items, etc.)? I've tried, but when it applies the Roman Numerals to the first level, the second level is wiped out from the Table of Contents. Thanks for any suggestions! |

You can apply outline numbering to the TOC styles.

Adding Multi-Level numbering to Table of Contents
The usual approach is to add numbering to your headings (assuming that you
are using heading styles to build the TOC), which will then be reflected in the TOC the next time you update it. Place the insertion point in the first Heading 1 paragraph of the document. Click Home | Multilevel List | Define New Multilevel List. In the dialog box, choose the settings that you want for each numbering level. In particular, make sure that you associate each heading style with the appropriate numbering level (to see that option, you may have to click the More button). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "PC Instructor" wrote in message ...

Adding Multi-Level numbering to Table of Contents
Use the built-in heading styles for your heading paragraphs, and apply
numbering to the styles. The numbering will then be correctly reflected in the table of contents. To define the numbering: Place the insertion point in your first Heading 1 style. Click the Home tab, click Multilevel List, and then click Define New Multilevel List. Click the More button to see all options in the dialog box. Choose the desired numbering for each level, and be sure to choose the appropriate paragraph style for each level in the "Link level to style" box. When you are done, click OK. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "PC Instructor" wrote: In Word 2007, is it possible to generate a Table of Contents (using the normal method via the References tab) and also assign multi-level numbering to the different text levels (i.e. assign Roman Numerals to the first level items, then assign lowercase a,b,c letters to all second level items, etc.)?
