document map
I understand that document map has some annoying quirks that can make it a
pain to use. Aside from having to delete the /u flag in the table of contents field, are there any other risks from using the document map? Even with the odd behaviour of grabbing one line captions or paragraphs, I still find it a very useful (albeit imperfect) tool for navigating large documents. Are there any alternatives to the document map (beside the obvious one of scrolling)? Thanks for any insights, and thanks for the previous discussions on this topic! Todd |

document map
Well, the obvious alternative to the document map is Outline view.
However, if you can live with the fact that it applies outline levels to paragraphs such as captions, document map should work just fine. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "stickleback" wrote in message ...

Is there any way to get Microsoft to fix the document map so it stops this
document corruption? "Stefan Blom" wrote: Well, the obvious alternative to the document map is Outline view.

document map
The fact that the document map applies the outline level attribute to
paragraphs that look like headings is considered a feature, not a bug, by Microsoft. For example, see this article: Troubleshoot the Document Map http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/wo...896691033.aspx In other words, the behavior is unlikely to change. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Hundi" wrote in message ...
