Adding the chapter / sub-chapter Headings into the Footer
Hi there everyone.
Happy New Year. I am attempting to create a long document (well actually a users manual). I have a footer for each page barring the first page which has the page number which is located centrally and the title of the manual on to one side. I have made space in the other side of the footer to include the chapter and sub-chapter headings. They were created in Headers 1 and 2 for conviniences. Without having to manually type the sub-chapter in the footer for quick reference, I was hoping that there would be a feature that I could include that into the header. So far I have been unable to do so. I have attempt been experimenting with different fields but I have been unsuccessful. Can someone out there could please provide me with a solution. Kindest regards Tom |

Either go to Insert Field and select StyleRef then the style you want, or
press CTRL-F9 and enter the field code manually. Eg, { StyleRef "Heading 1" } will display the text of the preceding Heading 1 paragraph. Check Help for the switch options for this field.
