Default Table of Contents - Removing Header Numbers

Hi There,

Does anyone know how to keep the Heading numbering from appearing in the
table for contents. For example...(please see below) I would like for the
"1" to be removed from the third line and just have it state 2.1.1 which is
part of a sentence in the document. The "1" is associated with Heading 1.

USER ACCEPTANCE TEST SCENARIO OVERVIEW..................4
ALERTS............................................ ................................5
1 2.1.1 SEARCH AND VIEW ALERT HISTORY...........6
COMP TITLE, ITEMS, & ARTWORK.......................................17

In the document, how is the "1 2.1.1 SEARCH AND VIEW ALERT HISTORY" entry
displayed? If you want to get rid of the initial "1" altogether, modify the
numbering of the document. If you want something else, try the tips in the
article at http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/TOCTips.htm (suggested by
Brian). Depending on what you are trying to do, separate styles or TC fields
would be used in this situation.

Default Table of Contents - Removing Header Numbers

Thanks Stefan and Brian. Unfortunately the article that you referred me to
did not answer my question. My TOC looks like the following:

User Acceptance Test Scenario Overview..............4
Alerts............................................ ....................5
1 2.1.1 Search and View Alert History...............6
Comp Title, Items, & Artwork..............................17
Future Title - Title............................................. .35

I would like to remove the "1" in front of the 2.1.1 Search and View Alert
History. This is a "Heading 1"

Any other ideas?

Thanks

Hi Suzanne - the 2.1.1 is a requirement number that is in the word document.
The next requirement number could be 2.3.2 but I don't want the default
number in front of the requirement number.

Default Table of Contents - Removing Header Numbers

Jeff,

If you don't want to use TC fields, use one style for the numbering (in the
body of the document) and a different one for the heading text; include only
the latter in the TOC. To make the two headings appear on the same line of
text, format the paragraph mark between them as hidden. See
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/RunInSidehead.htm.

However, in this case, if you are trying to exclude only some of the
numbered headings, TC fields might be easier.

The problem with this approach is that the Hidden paragraph mark suppresses

Hmm, the following seems to work for me:

2.1.1 (A numbered heading here--no text)¶ -- Hidden paragraph mark
Unnumbered heading text here

In Print Preview:

2.1.1 Unnumbered heading text here

If the text *following* the hidden paragraph mark has numbering, then it
won't work, though.

Version issue, perhaps?

Sounds like it should work, then. I virtually never use numbered headings,
so I haven't had much experience with it either way.

Hi Suzanne - the 2.1.1 is a requirement number that is in the word
document.
The next requirement number could be 2.3.2 but I don't want the
default
number in front of the requirement number.

Thanks Stefan and Brian. Unfortunately the article that you

referred
me
to
did not answer my question. My TOC looks like the following:

User Acceptance Test Scenario Overview..............4


Alerts............................................ ....................5
1 2.1.1 Search and View Alert History...............6
Comp Title, Items, & Artwork..............................17
Future Title -

Title............................................. .35

I would like to remove the "1" in front of the 2.1.1 Search and

View
Alert
History. This is a "Heading 1"

Any other ideas?

Thanks



Jeff

In the document, how is the "1 2.1.1 SEARCH AND VIEW ALERT

HISTORY"
entry
displayed? If you want to get rid of the initial "1"

altogether,
modify
the
numbering of the document. If you want something else, try the

tips
in
the
article at http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/TOCTips.htm
(suggested
by
Brian). Depending on what you are trying to do, separate

styles
or
TC
fields
would be used in this situation.

Hi There,

Does anyone know how to keep the Heading numbering from

appearing
in
the
table for contents. For example...(please see below) I

would
like
for
the
"1" to be removed from the third line and just have it state
2.1.1
which
is
part of a sentence in the document. The "1" is associated
with
Heading 1.

USER ACCEPTANCE TEST SCENARIO OVERVIEW..................4




ALERTS............................................ ..........................
.......5
1 2.1.1 SEARCH AND VIEW ALERT HISTORY...........6
COMP TITLE, ITEMS, &
ARTWORK.......................................17
