Setting a style on a list item
I can't seem to set a style on a list item without it taking it out of the
list. If I have: 1) test1 2) test2 And I set something like "Heading 1" to set the style based on "list" or something else, it takes it out of the list and the list becomes: test1 1) test2 How do I set a style that doesn't affect the list and only does nothing to the text or list. I am just trying to set up a style that I can use in my TOC. Thanks, Tom |

Setting a style on a list item
I also tried to use a custom template that was based on "Character" and that
didn't affect the List Item, but it also didn't appear in the TOC list of available styles. When I created the style I checked, add to template since in the TOC setup area I have "From Template" set in the Formats dropdown. But it still doesn't show. How can I get the custom style to show in the TOC list? Thanks, Tom "tshad" wrote in message ... "tshad" wrote in message ...

Setting a style on a list item
Create a numbered *paragraph style*; it can then be selected in the Table of
Contents Options dialog box. Or, even better, associate the built-in headings (Heading 1-9) with an outline-numbered list. Note that the exact steps to accomplish this depends on your version of Word. For Word 97-2003, the following link is useful: http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "tshad" wrote in message ...
