Page Numbering
I have a unique problem with respect to page numbering. I have a document that is broken up into PARTs and SECTIONS and Headings. I've used the Heading 1 for the PART Titles, Heading 2 for the SECTION titles and Heading 3 for the Headings. All will populate accordingly into my TOC. However, the page numbering requirements dictate that the PART, SECTION and page of each heading be reflected in the TOC. Example: 2-3-11 Where 2 is the Part, 3 is the Section and 11 is the page number within the respective part. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Tony |

Hi Tony,
That's not how a Word table of Contents (TOC) works. While you can have all three elements, you can't have them in the format you've described. As an example of what Word can do, see the following (excuse the alignment issues Code:
Contents Page 1 Preamble 3 2 Office Workloads 3 2.1 General Principles 3 2.2 Client Record Maintenance line item L001 3 2.3 Staffing and Purchasing line item L002 4 2.4 Preparation, dispatch and return of materials and equipment line item L003 5 2.5 Business-Hours technical support line item L004 7 2.6 After-Hours technical support line item L005 7 2.7 Staff on stand-by line item L006 8 2.8 Enquiries line item L014 9 2.9 Temporary staff travel costs line items L015 and L016 10 2.10 Recruitment agency costs line item L017 11 3 Static Venue Costs 12 3.1 Temporary staff day rates line items L100 to L113 13 3.2 OICs extra duties line item L114 14 3.3 Assistance with venue set-up line item L115 15 3.4 Travel costs line item L116 16 3.5 Vehicle costs line item L117 17 3.6 Telephone costs line item L118 18 3.7 Other allowances line item L119 19 4 Staff Training Costs 20 4.1 Training team wages line items L200 to L201 20 4.2 Training team travel costs line items L203 to L204 21 4.3 Training team vehicle costs line items L205 to L206 22 4.4 Training team expenses line item L207 23 4.5 Trainees wages line items L208 to L210 24 4.6 Trainees vehicle costs line item L211 25 4.7 Other trainee expenses line item L212 26

Paul,
Thank you for your response. I understand how the TOC ordinarily works. By configuring page numbering to reflect both Chapter and Page one can configure the TOC to look as follows: TOC.PNG However, I wanted to configure page numbering and if necessary to have a tOC that looks as follows: TOC2.PNG The TOC you pictured is the "plain jane" if you will and I need something a little more elaborate. Thanks again. Cheers, Tony |

Hi Tony,
I understood the objective from your first post but, as I replied, the 'plain jane' format is about the most you'll get from a Word TOC. Your 'something a little more elaborate' would require considerably more work to implement, especially if you want a conventional numbering layout in the body of the document. Ultimately, your custom Table of Contents would probably have to be built up from a combination of three cross-reference fields per heading - a cross-reference to the heading text, followed by a tab, then a cross-reference to the heading number, a separator character (eg period) then the cross-reference to the heading page number. You'd probably also want to format the different heading level cross-references in different Styles, just like those of a Word TOC. If there's a lot of this to be done, you'd probably want to automate the process via a macro.
