how to type non-printable text
When printing a Word 2003 document with a Table of Contents, the user is
prompted, "Word is updating the table of contents. Select one of the following options." I would like to include a notation in the document explaining to the user what to do but I do not want the notation to print out. |

how to type non-printable text
You may find it easier to intercept the FilePrint command with a macro that
updates the tables of contents before printing. That way, users wouldn't need any instructions at all. For example: Sub FilePrint() Dim toc As TableOfContents For Each toc In ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents toc.Update Next toc Dialogs(wdDialogFilePrint).Show End Sub Sub FilePrintDefault() Dim toc As TableOfContents For Each toc In ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents toc.Update Next toc ActiveDocument.PrintOut End Sub Store the macros in an add-in, and install it on each user's machine.
