MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / June 2004Table of Contents - Cross Reference issue
I have noted previous comments from Suzanne and Charles but would like some further assistance in idiot form please. I have a table which has contents. 1 is "Index", 2 is "Introduction" and so on. What I would like to do is to have the reader click on the word i.e. Index or Introduction or whatever and that then automatically show (take the reader to ) that section within the documnet. Cross-reference seems to get me there on some occasions but most of the actual headings with text (body of what is being said) are not shown. Should those headings have been created in a particular manner or am I not using the option in Cross Reference correcly? Any assistance is appreciated John An automatically generated Table of Contents in Word 2000 and later will automatically include hyperlinks. In Word 97 the page numbers, only, are hyperlinks. They don't have the blue color or underlining, but they are hyperlinks. What you need to be doing is using the built in heading styles to format your headings. Then you don't need to mess around with cross-references for a Table of Contents. There are step-by-step instructions at http://addbalance.com/usersguide/complex_document.htm.

Hi Charles, Yes like those you have shown. On each line. Each each new document and any already previously saved/held on the PC.. which is most frustrating.

If that doesn't work, check the View settings in the Tools | Options menu. See here for more info, and an explanation of how nonprinting characters can be extremely useful: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NonPrintChars.htm An alternate set of TOC instructions: How to create a table of contents in Microsoft Word http://www.ShaunaKelly.com/word/toc/CreateATOC.html DM > Hi Charles, > [quoted text clipped - 120 lines] >> >> . Dayo has answered your primary question. However, if they are on each line this means you are not using Word correctly. Those are paragraph marks and should be at the end of each paragraph. You should be letting Word wrap your lines by itself and setting where that will happen using margins and paragraph formatting for indents. Pressing the Enter key at the end of each line, as if using a typewriter, makes your work much more difficult to edit.

Any further assistance again gratefully received. John >-----Original Message----- >Dayo has answered your primary question. However, if they are on each line [quoted text clipped - 132 lines] > >. Hi Dayo, Thank for that, I will have a look at the site you have nominated as well. I do not suppose you know how to check the speed f a hard drive? I thought of hitting the "Del" key at start up to check the BIOS but that did not help. I have also tried Properties in My Computer.I have 2 Pc's here both with various version of Win98. Any guidance appreciated. Thanks John >I do not suppose you know how to check the speed f a hard >drive? [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >I have also tried Properties in My Computer.I have 2 Pc's >here both with various version of Win98. If you mean that you want a benchmark program to measure your hard drive speed, look for HDTach. Google should find it for you. If you mean that you want to know the drive ratings (RPM, access time, etc.) th ebest bet is to get the model number (either by opening the box and reading it off the drive or by looking in Device Manager), and then check the drive manufacturer's web site. If neither of these works, ask in the newsgroup: comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.storage Bob S |
