TOC question
I have an existing document that I want to add a TOC to. The entire
doc is currently normal, and has several continous section break so that I can have different headers for different sections. I would like the TOC to not include text that is 'normal' and only include text in 'heading 1, 2,...' however, when I added a TOC, it is including entire paragraphs. How can I do this? Thanks. |

TOC question
Body Text! That is what I was missing. It was not listed in my style
sheet so I was using normal. Switching to Body text corrected the issue for me. Thanks. |

The TOC should not be including anything in Normal style, however.

TOC question
The root of you problem is probably the outline level setting, in
FormatParagraph. Applied in this manner, as direct formatting, the outline level setting can certainly add paragraphs to the table of contents (the Document Map contributes to this problem -- see: http://daiya.mvps.org/docmap.htm). Applying the Body Text style then solved the problem, because applying a paragraph style reverts text to the settings of that style. Note that a different way to get rid of direct paragraph formatting from the selection is to press Ctrl+Q. Alternatively, you can prevent the TOC from including paragraphs with outline level formatting: Press Alt+F9 to show field codes, delete the \u switch from the TOC field, press F9 to update, and finally press Alt+F9 again to hide field codes. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP wrote in message oups.com...
