Default TOC font issues

I have generated a TOC using headers to define. The font capitalization has
changed in several of the headers. For example, my header 1 is all caps but
in the middle of a word in the TOC is a lower case letter. I've checked the
header within the text and the header is formatted all caps. There's also a
few places where the first letter of the header should be capitalized but in
the TOC it's coming through as lower case. Any ideas?

Default TOC font issues

I would say that the text in the Headings was actually typed in with the
upper and lower case discrepancies. The formatting of the Heading 1 style to
All Caps will not change the actual text, only its appearance. Your TOC is
defined by the TOC styles, which obviously is not using All Caps format.
Go to Outline View, select Heading level 1 only, turn off €śshow format€ť and
you should see exactly how the text was typed.
To correct, either use Shift-F3 (then F4) to toggle to the desired
capitalisation, or select all and use Format, Change Case, Title Case. Beware
this way will change even €ślittle€ť words (such as: as, is, at, the) to Title
Case.
Hope this helps, best of luck.

Default TOC font issues

Dean,
That did the trick. Very weird. I would have thought the formatting for
the header would have taken care of the caps in the TOC. I did notice that
there was no way to format "Title Case" for TOC format so in a way I guess
that makes sense, otherwise you would be stuck with your header style in the
TOC whether that's what you want or not.
