Formatting Chapter Headings with Overline/Underline
I'm working on a book and I want the Chapter headings to be chapter number
written out with a heavy line above and below. I also want a bulleted dot to the right of the Chapter number if on an even page and to the left if on an odd page. Is there any way to do this? I'm working with Office 2007 Word |

Formatting Chapter Headings with Overline/Underline
It can certainly be done, but it will require some hand work to accommodate
single and double digits. The lines can be paragraph borders; you'll need to set paragraph indents to give you the desired length (and these will be different for single and double digits). You can anchor a dot to the First Page Header (assuming each chapter begins a new section, with "Different first page" enabled); the dot can be an AutoShape with some wrapping other than square; experiment with "Outside" placement to see if you can get the effect you want. Otherwise you'll have to place those by hand as well. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "Deej Hernandez" wrote in message ...

This would certainly be much easier to do in the header; I got the
impression he wanted it in the document text itself. -- Suzanne S.
