TOC style applied to entire section??
My first time inserting a TOC (Word 2002). I've got the styles defined and
applied. I've got the TOC field inserted and it looks pretty much okay. But it looks like when I inserted the field, _everything_ in that section got tagged with TOC1 style! Is this normal behavior? Or did I do something incorrectly? Ed |

Are you saying that everything in the TOC field is TOC 1 or that other parts
of your document (outside the field) have been tagged as TOC 1? -- Suzanne S.

Hi, Suzanne.
other parts of your document (outside the field) have been tagged as TOC 1? Everything else in that section that was originally Normal style, including a two-cell table, were tagged as TOC1. Now, though, after I've played with formatting, etc, to modify the TOC1 style to how I want (couldn't see how to create a new TOC style), all that is tagged TOC1 is the field. I don't know what I did - but it might come in handy some day if I can ever figure it out! Ed "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

Make sure that there is a paragraph break (not just a line break) separating
the TOC and the rest of the text and that there are paragraph breaks in the rest of the text. If the whole thing were in one paragraph... -- Suzanne S.

No, it was a header on top of the page "Table of Contents", a paragraph
break, a two-cell table with "Section" in the left cell and "Page" in the right cell, and at least one more paragraph. The first time also gave me "Table of contents(continued)" on the next page as a result of inserting the TOC field. Ed "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

Are you working with a premade template? These issues sound like what you
would encounter in this case. The header on the next page is something that has to have been saved in the template. It also sounds as if the Section and Page table was intended for creating a manual TOC; inserting a TOC field was probably not envisioned in the template designer's design. -- Suzanne S.
