How to use "Document Map"?
Hi! Is there a secret to "telling" my computer which things to include in
"Document Map"? I really just need three levels of headings. As it is now, "Document Map" includes things I don't want to include, and does not include things I want to include. Thanks so much! Brad |

How to use "Document Map"?
The document map includes any paragraph with an "Outline level" specified
(in the Paragraph dialog box). Note that if you make use of the built-in headings Heading 1, Heading 2, and Heading 3, you will automatically get the appropriate outline levels. You can modify the formatting of these heading styles to suit your needs. In the Styles and Formatting pane (Styles pane in Word 2007), right-click the style that you want to modify and choose Modify from the context menu. (For more on styles in general, see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styl...ifyAStyle.html, but note that the article was written for Word 2003 in particular.) The problem with the document map is that it tries to guess which paragraphs are headings, and applies outline levels more or less arbitrarily; see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/general/DocumentMap.htm. It is safer to make use of Outline view. See http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/UsingOLView.htm. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Brad" wrote in message ... Hi!
