Retrieving bold lines as lines in Table of Contents
Not unless you use Find and Replace to apply a heading style to all bolded
lines. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Pekka Numminen" wrote in message ... In Microsoft Word 2007, is there a way to include all bolded lines as lines in a table of contents? |

CTRL+H opens the replace dialog
With the cursor in the find box type CTRL+B (bold) Click the More button Click into the replace with box Format and pick a heading style Click CTRL+B Note that you should have Font: Bold under the empty find box and Syle: Heading 1, Font Bold under the empty replace box. If not click no formatting and start again! When you have this click replace. Note that if only part of the line is Bold, the whole paragraph will be formatted with the heading style, so click through one at a time. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Pekka Numminen wrote: On Sep 19, 6:02 pm, "Suzanne S.

Retrieving bold lines as lines in Table of Contents
I would suggest an alternative:
1. Search for ^p (a paragraph mark) with bold format. (This will ensure that you get just full paragraphs that are bold.) 2. Replace with the style but remove the bold formatting from the "Replace with" box (press Ctrl+B twice more until the Font: Bold disappears). I would worry that the headings would be bolded whether the style includes that format or not, or that Word would remove the bold formatting that might be included in the style. -- Suzanne S.

I agree about (1) but with (2) the replace with is not so clear cut. If you
use a style that is already bold then the bold attribute will be reversed. However if you use a style that is not bold, the bold attribute would be retained. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Suzanne S.
