Needing help-

My paragraph format looks like the following.

"3.1.1 Responsibility. This chapter is a result of a
joint effort between the Office of the Secretary of
Defense (OSD) Central Test & Evaluation ... ".

BUT the corresponding TOC entry includes the entire
paragraph, not just the para # + title (3.1.1
Responsibility ...).

How do I separate the paragraph title, "Responsibility",
(style of heading 3 in this case) from the paragraph
narrative that should "normal" style without making the
paragraph title a standalone paragraph?

Is there a work-around?
Don

G'day "Don" <anonymous@discussions.microsoft.com>,

I vaguely remember that Word XP supports run-in headers. If you have
XP I could suggest some tricks to try.

Otherwise we can use a processing macro to help.

We style everything but what we want in the TOC on our run-in headers
with some unique char style - eg NoTOCHeader

Just before we build the TOC, we FnR NoTOCHeader with
.Font.Hidden=True

We build the TOC

then we FnR back to normality again.

Hi Don,

This page lists a few different options, depending on Word version:
