Default Table of content

Hello,
I have a 175 pages document with a table of content. When I click in
the table of content the link opens IE and takes me to our internet
web site instead of linking me to the page number in the document.
I've tried to regenerate the table several times but it still links to
the internet. How do I fix this please so it opens the page number in
the document? Thanks.

Have you tried going to the Microsoft Word Help and querying "Table of
Contents". It explains how to create, delete, update, etc... What version of
Word are you using? ~ivcchelpdesk

Hi,
I'm using Word 2000 and Windows 2000, and yes, I've been searching
through the MS Word Help for Table of content but so far after
deleting the whole TOC and recreating it with the Styles in the
document, I still jump to our internet website each time I click on
any line in the table of content. I don't understand what's going on
here... Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hi

Does this happen to every document you create, or just this one particular
document?

And, what are the field codes used for the TOC? To find out, put your cursor
in the TOC, do Shift-F9 and you'll see the code surrounded by special
braces. Let us know what those codes are.

Cheers

Hello again,

This problem happens in this particular document only. I have another
similar large document with a TOC that works perfectly.

When I select the whole TOC and look at the field codes (Shift F9),
this is what I see:

{ TOC \o "1-1" \h \z \t "Heading 2.2.Heading 3.3Heading4.4titre2.2" }

Now, if I click one individual line at a time the field codes a

{ HYPERLINK \1 "_Toc90871855" }
{ HYPERLINK \1 "_Toc90871856" }
{ HYPERLINK \1 "_Toc90871857" }
{ HYPERLINK \1 "_Toc90871858" }
{ HYPERLINK \1 "_Toc90871859" }
{ HYPERLINK \1 "_Toc90871860" } etc. etc... all the way up to
{ HYPERLINK \1 "_Toc90871971" }

I have 120 lines in my TOC.

Thanks for your help Shauna.

Hi

If it's just one document, then we know there's nothing wrong with your set
up of Word in general. There doesn't seem to be anything unusual about the
field codes for your TOC (In my English version of Word, I'm used to seing
commas between the elements, like "Heading 2, 2, Heading 3, 3...", but since
you're using a style called titre2, I wonder if you're using a non-English
version of Word, which might use a full stop as the delimiter instead of
commas, so while your TOC doesn't look like mine, I'm assuming it's OK.)

So, if this were mine, I'd go through the following steps in this order
until I found one that worked. I suggest you make a backup somewhere before
you start mucking around too much with your document.

1. Regenerate the TOC. To do that, use the arrow keys to move your cursor
within the TOC, and press F9. If you are asked whether you want to update
page numbers only or update the entire table, *always* choose to update the
entire table.

2. Delete the TOC and re-create it.

3. Delete the TOC, create a new document, copy everything in the document
*except* the last paragraph mark. Re-create the TOC in the new document.

4. Make sure that the headings themselves are not linked to anything. That
is, make sure there is no hyperlink from a heading to something else on your
server (I'm clutching at straws he I can't really imagine this as a
problem!)

5. Eat chocolate and try again tomorrow.

Hope this helps.

Hi Shauna,

Thanks for your suggestions. I finally had the TOC working properly
using your #3 solution. I had to copy everything in a new document and
re-create the TOC but it works now. Thanks very much for your help and
I'll leave the chocolate to you.

Have a nice holidays!
