table of contents not updating correctly
I use outline numbering for headings. When I update the table of contents
that is referring back to my heading levels, some, not all, of the heading level 3 will not update to include the outline number they have. I get just the text the heading uses. What's weird is it doesn't happen to all the level 3 headings, just a couple. It looks like this 1. First Heading, 1st level 1.2 Second Heading, 2nd level 1.2.1 Third Heading, 3rd level 1.2.2 Fourth Heading, 3rd level Fifth Heading, 3rd level (should include outline number 1.2.3) 1.2.4 Sixth Heading, 3rd level Seventh Heading, 3rd level (should include outline number 1.2.5) 1.2.6 Eight Heading, 3rd level As you can see, the outline numbering sequences properly on headings that follow the headings where the outline number is missing. I have gone to those individual headings in the text and deleted them, changed the style to normal, retyped the heading name, then reapplied the heading 3 style it should have. I then go back to the TOC page, right click and choose update entire table of contents. I still do not get the outline number along with the heading text. Any ideas on how to resolve this? I am running Windows XP and Word 97. thanks |
