I am creating a template for writing a brief for the US Supreme Court. The
TOC uses headers 1 through 4. All is well if I use a TOC from the template
except for one important thing. Header 1 is in all caps and the style font
so reflects and it is that way in the body of the brief (These headings are
generally fixed in Sup CT briefs). However, when I create the TOC the H1
entries are in Sentence case.

If I change the template so that the font in the TOC is all Caps, it also
capitalizes the page numbers, which in some case are lower case roman
numbers such as ii, and iv, etc.

What I want is the entries in the TOC to be the same font and style as the
Header with the TOC only handling the placement of the entries in TOC
format.

How do I get the TOC to read the headers in the same font a cap as the
headers in the body? What switch?

Thanks.

If the Heading style is formatted as all caps and the TOC style is not
formatted as all caps, and if you type the Heading text in lower case or
sentence case, then the Heading text will appear in the heading as all
caps, but the TOC will pick up the Heading text in the case you typed it
in. That's just how it works. You need to type the Heading text the
way you want it to appear in the TOC.

Well dang. That worked! One would think that if one creates a header style
that says anything typed would be "all caps" that one would not ALSO have to
set the caps lock on and type in uppercase since the text appears in upper
case when you type using the style.

Thanks for the help. I spent a few hours trying to figure that out. That
ought to be in one or two of the book I bought about Word 2007.
