Numbering inconsistency
I'm using field codes (IncludeText) to insert chapters into my document. In
each chapter document the title is formatted with Heading 1 and numbering (1, 2, 3). There's no problem when I simply use IncludeText to insert the chapters into the main document - when I update the fields, the numbering of the chapters is sequential and looks fine. However, when I put Includetext inside an IF field, the numbering disappears. The rest of the chapter appears properly but the numbering that should appear next to Heading 1 is not there. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. My field appears like so: {IF value="content" {IncludeText "document.doc"}} Thanks for any help. |

Numbering inconsistency
I can reproduce the behavior. The only workaround I can think of is add a
blank paragraph at the beginning of each included document. If you apply a style with 1 pt font size, no spacing before or after, and 1 pt of line spacing to the blank paragraph, it will be practically invisible in the target document. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "book_worm71" wrote in message ...
