table of contents multiple line heading styles
Is it possible to have a multiple line heading style appear in the table of
contents as one line? This is actually a caption with the table or figure number and the description under it (they don't want it on the same line in the document). Thus far I have just modified it in the table of contents, but every time you update it, you have to edit it. I didn't know if there was any way possible to modify it in the table of content options. Thanks! |

Use a line break (shft+enter), instead of a regular paragraph break, to break
the lines in the caption. The TOC feature will ignore the line break when reproducing the caption.

table of contents multiple line heading styles
Thanks so much! I thought it would be something simple. I previous tried
using ctrl+enter within the caption label and then treid the shift+enter too, but it still showed on two lines in the TOC. However, when I left it on one line in the label and then pressed shift enter within the document, then it did update to one line! Yay! Thanks again.

Yes, you will have to press Shift+Enter within the heading in the document
body; you can't add the line break character to the field code. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "kim" wrote in message ... Thanks so much! I thought it would be something simple.

Oops, I sent the message before it was finished (or before I was finished
thinking about it)... :-( I meant to write that you cannot insert a line break within a number (if this is autonumbering rather than numbering added via the Caption dialog box). Also, don't forget to update the TOC when making changes to the text. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Stefan Blom" wrote in message ...

You're welcome.

The TOC feature will ignore the line break when [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] every time you update it, you have to edit it.
