TOC Same Page Number - Not Reading Layout
I have the following TOC in a Word 2007 template: {TOC \f \h \z}
Field codes are set up in this format: {tc "1.1 Caption" \f C \L 1} If I open the template from Windows Explorer by right clicking and selecting Open, the TOC is fine. But if I double click on the template from WE (and create a new Document1 based on the template), the TOC has the same page number (3) for all pages. The first few TOC entries are correct, because those field codes are, indeed, on Page 3. Tracked changes reveal that the error begins on Page 4. If I update the TOC with F9, the issue is corrected. I read other Q/A's opening documents Reading Layout (2003) or Full Screen Reading (2007). This doesn't seem to apply - "Open e-mail attachments in Full Screen Reading view" is NOT checked in my Popular options. And the issue is not occuring when documents are sent via email - they are being opened from a network drive. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! This issue also occurred in the same templates before my recent upgrade from Word 2003 to 2007. |

TOC Same Page Number - Not Reading Layout
I can easily reproduce what you are describing. I believe updating the TOC
field will always be necessary when creating a new document from a template containing a TOC (I don't remember how it used to work in older versions, though). An alternative to including the TOC in the template file is to create an AutoText entry which users can insert as they need to add a TOC. Word will prompt you to update the added TOC. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "McGuinnP" wrote in message ...
