TOC updating problems
I am using some if statements and the includetext fields to insert specific
files into a lager document. The problem is when the TOC updates it shows a lot of blank entries. The new file entries are there, but the blank ones are there too. Wondering if anyone has seen that, and would know how to fix it. |

TOC updating problems
The problem could be that you have empty paragraphs (i.e. paragraphs
consisting of a paragraph mark only) in your document and that some of these paragraphs are formatted with the styles that are included in the TOC. I suggest that you turn on formatting marks and check the document for such empty paragraphs. -- Regards Lene Fredborg DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Iragalam" wrote: I am using some if statements and the includetext fields to insert specific files into a lager document.

TOC updating problems
I can't find any blank paragraphs. Maybe the problem has something to do
with the field code. The files I am including contain certian headers. Could this be causing a problem with the field code?

TOC updating problems
If you have inserted manual page breaks before any headings, they will be
formatted in the heading style and will appear as blank entries. Instead of using a manual page break, format the heading as "Page break before" (Format | Paragraph | Line and Page Breaks). -- Suzanne S.
