Hi there,
My chapters' headers look like that: 1.1. Chapter name Chapter number (1.1.) and Chapter name are two different styles and are in two lines. How to have them in one line in ToC just to look like that: 1.1. Chapter name I've racked my brain but with no success. The only thing I've managed to think was placing a white coloured text "1.1. Chapter name" and mark it as a ToC's header but it would be only double hassle with updating titles and a partial loss of automation while creating the ToC. Any ideas would be appreciated. -- ..B:artek. |

See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/T...mberedHeadings Thanks, that partially solved my problem. But what if I do not have only a plain numbered list (like 1., 2., 3., etc.) but a leveled one: 1. 1.1. 1.2. 1.2.1. 1.3. 2. etc. I managed to set up multiple levels of numbering but I cannot make the numbering of the deeper level (e.g. 1.2.1.) inherit all but the last digit from the level above. I mean here only the last digit is grey (set automatically) when I modify the numbering options. -- ..B:artek. |

Are we talking about the numbering in the document or in the TOC?

Ordinary numbering (1., 2., 3., etc) in the TOC was explained on your website (thanks!). But what if I want to have numbering in the TOC done like that: 1. 1.1. 1.2. 1.2.1. 1.3. 2. etc. To understand me better please read this and my last post. -- ..B:artek. |

Then you would apply outline numbering to the TOC styles just as you would
to any other, following the instructions at http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html. But if your headings are numbered in the document, the TOC should pick up the numbering. -- Suzanne S.

But if your headings are numbered in the document, the TOC should pick up the numbering. Headings are not numbered. At least Word does not assume that they are - see my first post. Numbering uses another style than heading's name. OK, I'll try to explain my problem using different words. My headings, which I want to put into the TOC, look like that: 1. Chapter 1.1. Chapter 1.2. Chapter 1.2.1. Chapter 1.2.2. Chapter 1.3. Chapter etc. Each level (1., 1.x., 1.x.x., etc.) uses a different style both in the document body as well as in the TOC and both for the numbering and chapter's name. Putting chapters' names Chapter into the TOC was no problem. The problem was letting Word assing proper numbering to each of the chapters. What I achieved so far is that chapters in the TOC are numbered. However it's been done partly manually. I'll describe you why. I managed to automatically number the first level (1., 2., etc.). If I put something between Chapter 1 and 2 in the document body and mark it using a proper style, Chapter 2 becomes Chapter 3 - that's understood and OK. But now the second level (1.1., 1.2., 1.3. etc.). It also goes automatically if I put something between e.g. 1.2. and 1.3. If I put someting before Chapter 1, the "old" Chapter 1 becomes 2 - OK. But the second level does not change its primary digit. As a result I get something like that (comparing to the situation depicted above): 1. Chapter 2. Chapter 1.1. Chapter 1.2. Chapter etc. The same happens with the third level (1.2.1., 1.2.2. etc.) and so on. In other words, when I try to set up numbering format (TOC Edit | Modify | TOC 2 | Modify | Format | Numbering | Define new numbering format -- as for Word 2007) only the last digit is greyed out which means that it is set automatically. Previous digit or two previous digits are fixed by me. That's why I can get 1.2.x numbering instead if x.x.x., where two first digits are set in accordance with numbering of levels above. Hope this will help you to understand my problem. Thank you for your patience. -- ..B:artek. |

If you are applying outline numbering to TOC 1, TOC 2, and TOC 3 styles and
linking the outline list to the styles just as you would do for heading, then the numbering should work the same as it would for headings. Make sure that you check the boxes for restarting numbering after the next higher level. -- Suzanne S.

My 10-years Word experience seems to be nothing when it comes to numbering within the TOC. It wouldn't be a problem if this was ordinary text numbering or creating TOC with numbered headers. Anyway thank you for your help. -- ..B:artek. |

Don't despair: you can become a Word MVP and not have a clear concept of how numbering in Word really works ... ;-) Of course, you could try to setup the headings as numbered and hide their numbering (and cross-reference on it in the paragraph above) if you really want to keep this setup ... Then you would not have to number the TOC styles ...

I have two ideas: hide (Font settings | Hide) numbering, but then it hides in the TOC too, and make numbering in headings have the same color as background (i.e. white). -- ..B:artek. |

As long as you are aware that it's a hack, this might actually work fine.
