TOC line spacing?
Word (2003) is generating a TOC automagically, but the lines are quite far
apart, probably doublespaced. I'm confused as to how to change that. Word is applying Hypertext style to all TOC entries. In Styles and Formatting, the Hyperlink style is shown as a character style (little 'a' at the right of the name) but counterintuitively says it's derived from the Default Paragraph Style. In the Hypertext style's Format pulldown, Paragraph is greyed out, so obviously line spacing can't be twiddled there. Can I change the TOC line spacing (preferably without changing the Default Paragraph Style)? thanks Alan |

TOC line spacing?
I agree this is very confusing. If you allow the entire TOC entry (as
opposed to just the page numbers) to be hyperlinked, then Word does indeed display the Hyperlink character style (instead of the underlying paragraph style) as the "Formatting of selected text" in the Styles and Formatting task pane. There are various ways around this: 1. If you change the paragraph formatting of a single TOC entry, most likely the style will be updated (TOC styles are by default set to update automatically). 2. You *can* access the Modify Style dialog for styles that are not displayed, though it requires some unintuitive steps (see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...ifyAStyle.html). 3. You could temporarily unlink the TOC entries: press Alt+F9 to display the field code, delete the \h switch, Alt+F9 to toggle back, and F9 to update. You should then see TOC 1, TOC 2, etc., as the "Formatting of selected text." Later you can add the \h switch back if desired. -- Suzanne S.
