MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / November 2007TOC: - Omission of TABS from Heading Paragraph
I have a document in which I have a number of Level 1 headings with auto-numbering. These headings are single line paragraphs and have three bits of text separated by tabs: e.g. 1. ^ Title description ^ Company Name ^ Dates When inserting a TOC for the first level heading only, I'd like to retain the tabs as I'd like to have the same tabbed layout within the TOC as there is in the single line heading paragraph. However, the tabs get replaced with spaces. I cannot seem to find a way to achieve what I want automatically within the TOC. Is it possible? Thanks Mal: The \w switch in the TOC field code will preserve tabs in the entries. You'll need to use something other than a tab to separate the page number or you'll get odd results.

Many thanks > Mal: > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > -- > Windows XP, Word 2000 Just tried the /w in the TOC field codes............. . . . . . . Worked like a charm! Perfect! Exactly what I was after! I think you'll find that \w works, while /w probably won't. SignatureSuzanne S.

Yeah, thanks, I realised that as soon as I saw the format of the other switches for the TOC style. |
