dot leader disappears in table of contents
Can you tell me why the dot leader does not display when generating a TOC for
level 1? I have checked the setting and the dot leaders display for level 2 (heading 2), but not for heading 1 levels. I am using the format from template, showing 2 levels. After I update the TOC and go into the settings, the dot leaders option is not checked, even though I check it every time. I am using a tablet, although I had the same problem on a regular PC. I am also using Word 2003. |

Give up on the TOC dialog and edit the style directly. With the insertion
point in one of the TOC 1 entries, go to Format | Tabs, select the tab at the right margin, and add a period leader. -- Suzanne S.

Yes, I ended up doing that. I found that the style had been edited before so
that only the TOC2 entries had the leader tab and I was able to get TOC1 entries changed too. Thank you. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Give up on the TOC dialog and edit the style directly.
