Table of Contents


I have a heading which I need to incorporate in my TOC (as follows):

PART I

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS

i.e. each "part" is on a separate line and centered.

When I create the TOC, PART I is on a separate line to LETTER FROM THE......

How can I show the heading in the TOC one one line?

Thanks

Sue

RE: Table of Contents

Hello Susan

Thank you for your question.

What style is used to format Part 1 and Letter from the independent directors?

Amanda

RE: Table of Contents

Hi Amanda

I've created my own style which is based on the "normal" style.

Thanks

Sue

Hi Susan

In the actual document, is Part 1 and Letters from the Independant Directors in the same paragraph? Because if they aren't then they will appear on two lines in the TOC.

Kind regards
Amanda

Hi Amanda

Thanks for your reply. Part 1 and Letters etc. are on two separate lines as they are headings. Should I put them onto one line to produce the TOC and then separate them after?

Hi Susan

Yes, this is what I would do - if the headings are on separate lines when you create the TOC, then they will come up in separate lines in the TOC as well.

So I would create the TOC last when the document is completely finished with the two headings on one line, then separate them again afterwards.

Word tip:

Selective highlighting...

Selecting in word has improved with CTRL being added in XP for individual ranges, like in excel. If you want to select a range such as an column which has been created using tabs you could use the CTRL key and select one word at a time, but if you hold down the ALT key and then click and drag your mouse it will select wherever you drag to. This will only allow you to do 1 change though.
