Document Map and Outline Levels in 2007
Hi all,
I have a 2007 document I've been working with for a while. Somehow, after the last save, I opened the document up, and the document map is all sorts of messed up. Word seems to have changed the outline level on a lot of text that has styles applied to it to Level 1 instead of Body Text. This completely messes up the document map. I have gone through the document map, made all the necessary corrections at the text where the outline level has changed, choosing Paragraph - Outline Level and setting it back to Body Text in all the areas. The document map looked correct afterwards, showing only the headings I wanted to see. After saving the corrections, closing the document, and then re-opening the document, Word again has changed the outline levels of all the corrections I had just made, setting it back to the messed-up state. If I choose the styles, and look at the individual style, the Outline Level is correct (Body Text), but when I click on the area in the document with the text where a style is applied and look at Paragraph - Outline level, it is changed to 1. Why does Word do this, and how can I fix it so that it saves correctly, and stays fixed??? Thanks for any help to this annoying problem!!! |
