Left aligned numbers in Word TOC
Is there any way I can reformat a Table of Contents to display the numbers
before the heading text? For example: 1. Introduction 2. Chapter 1 3. Chapter 2 |

There is no built-in way to accomplish what you want. One way is to do
it manually: Bookmark all of your headings and then insert cross-references to the page number and the text of each bookmark. Alternatively, you could build the TOC with a macro, but you'll have to ask in a VBA newsgroup, such as microsoft.public.word.vba.general to get help with that. -- Stefan Blom "David Shennan" David wrote in message ...

Hi ?B?RGF2aWQgU2hlbm5hbg==?=,
Is there any way I can reformat a Table of Contents to display the numbers before the heading text? For example: 1. Introduction 2. Chapter 1 3. Chapter 2 You can use TC fields to contain the text for the table of contents. That allows you to generate customized text in the TOC entries. 1. Insert a TC field at the beginning of the paragraph immediately following a heading. 2. Use an SEQ field to generate the numbering. And a StyleRef field to pick up the heading's text. It would look a lot like this: { TC "{ Seq Hd } { StyleRef "Heading 1" }" } 3. When you insert the TOC, click "Options" and deactivate the entries for "Styles" and "Outline levels"; activate the one for "Table entry fields". 4. Ctrl+A, F9 a couple of times to make sure all the fields have updated properly, otherwise the TOC content will probably look a bit odd.
