TOC and Hyperlink
Hi , I am trying to create one main TOC for mulitple documents, it's for a
thesis. Everything works out fine except there are no hyperlinks in the TOC. When I checked the field code it was : {TOC\*MERGEFORMAT} {RD Chapter1.doc} {RD Chapter2.doc} ...etc so, I added the "\h" tag to {TOC\*MERGEFORMAT\h} , but it still didn't work. What have I done wrong? Thanks Dina |

TOC and Hyperlink
Possibly nothing. I could be wrong, but I don't believe a TOC created with
RD fields is/can be hyperlinked to the external docs. -- Suzanne S.

TOC and Hyperlink
Suzanne,
Any ideas on other alternatives to getting hyperlinks for multiple-document TOCs? The programs Master Document has a reputation for really screwing things up so badly I opted not to use that. -- Scubamunda "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Possibly nothing.

TOC and Hyperlink
The only alternative would be to unlink the TOC (otherwise anything you do
to it will be undone the next time it's updated), bookmark the headings in each document, and manually create hyperlinks to those specific headings (and I'm actually not sure that's possible in Word). In any case, the requirement to unlink the TOC would make this impracticable. -- Suzanne S.
