MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / February 2008{ STYLEREF "EPRI Chapter Number"\n }-{ PAGE}
I am using this field code to generate page numbers in the footer of a long document. It is working properly. Page 1 in Chapter 3, for example, appears as "3-1" at the bottom of the page. Ditto for page 2 in Chapter 3, which appears as "3-2". However, the Table of Contents does not reflect these page numbers. Instead, it uses page numbers such as 61, 62, etc. Here is the current field code for the Table of Contents: { TOC \O "1-3" \H \Z \U } How do I need to modify it so that it uses "EPRI Heading 2" for level 2 headers and and "Heading 2" for level three headers in the TOC? Help! Gwen H > I am using this field code to generate page numbers in the footer of a long > document. It is working properly.

If you do, you will see that you must use the built-in Heading 1 to 9 for that. This is why it is usually recommended to use Word's built-in heading styles, unless you need a mutliple numbering scheme in your document. For more on this particular topic, see http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/UseBuiltInHeadingStyles.html Actually, that's not entirely correct. You can specify which headers should be used within the TOC field code. The information in Word's help feature, and information on this discussion board, indicates that it can be done. I'm just not getting something with the syntax quite right. Gwen H. > > I am using this field code to generate page numbers in the footer of a long > > document. It is working properly.

For more on this particular topic, see > http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/UseBuiltInHeadingStyles.html If you are doing this with outline numbering, you must use the built-in headings; see http://word.mvps.org/faqs/numbering/chapternumber.htm. As explained in the article, you will have to insert section breaks and restart page numbers on each section. On the other hand, if you are doing it with SEQ fields, the required switch in the TOC field is: \s "sequence name here" But note that you will have to add the SEQuence number to the header (or footer), and that you still need section breaks (if you want to restart page numbers).

I thought this was not allowed? You can use SEQ fields in headers or footers, assuming that it contains the \c switch, which repeats the current number. For example, in order to use SEQ fields for chapter numbering and include the SEQ field in the header and the TOC: Header: { SEQ test \c }-{ PAGE } Main body of document: { SEQ test } This is a "My custom heading" paragraph Table of contents: { TOC \t "my custom heading,1" \s "test" } The result for the TOC: 1 This is a "My custom heading" paragraph...................................1-1 The example assumes that there is a style called "My custom heading" which is used for headings. The { SEQ test } field is used to number the headings. As I wrote in my previous reply, section breaks are required to restart page numbers.

Never used SEQ fields in headers/footers before. Thanks for the info. >> You can use SEQ fields in headers or footers, assuming that it contains >> the [quoted text clipped - 25 lines] > > Never used SEQ fields in headers/footers before.

Headers that you specify within a TOC field are usually used to determine a TOC level, they do not have any impact on the display of page numbers. If they do, this is new to me and I would very much like to know how heading styles can be used to influence the display of page numbers within a TOC. From your post subject line, I see that you are using styles to control the numbering, both of the chapters themselves and for the dispaly of the chapter number in the footer. This is why I wrote that you must use Word's built in heading styles. If you want to use your own styles, you will have to restructure your document to use a mix of automatic numbering and SEQ fields, or use only SEQ fields. Which is what Stefan wrote.
