Default Style-driven Heading items not appearing in TOC

Indeed, sometimes we just make those annoying mistakes! :-)

Stefan,

I did a Dumb Thing: I *almost always* use Heading 7 for appendices. Except
on this new template, I forgot that I'm now using Heading 9! So everything
was working as designed, except for the guy at the keyboard.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my inquiry,

-Hans

Just to clarify: you are saying that you have changed the options and
*inserted* a TOC, which then doesn't "behave"?

What is the field code for this TOC? Display field codes by pressing Alt+F9.
Your TOC should display similar to the following:

{ TOC \o "1-3" \t "Heading 7,1" \h }

The \t switch ensures that Heading 7 paragraphs are formatted as level 1
entries in the table of contents.

Note that there is no way to save the choices made in the TOC Options dialog
box for future documents; what you can do is insert a TOC field and save
*that* in a template.

I have a template whose headings are driven by Word's Heading styles. In the
TOC, I need corresponding items for Heading 1, 2, 3, AND 7.

In the TOC Options dialog box, I have selected TOC styles 1, 2, & 3 to
correspond with Headings 1, 2 & 3, and I've selected Heading 7 style to
correspond to TOC 1 style.

The TOC does NOT include the Heading 7 items.

What's wrong?

Thanks...
