Advanced ToC problem (possibly)

norby · #1 05-04-2012, 06:09 AM

Hi all,

Have the following layout:

HTML Code:

Header 1: blabla
 Header 2: Topic 1
  Header 3: Action Items
   (text) AI 1
   (text) AI 2
 Header 2: Topic 2
 Header 2: Topic 3
  Header 3: Action Items
   (text) AI 1

I would like to make a Table of Contents (or something similar) with the Action Items, to have an overview of what needs to be done:

Most preferable output would be

HTML Code:

Action items
 Topic 1 - 2 item(s)
 Topic 3 - 1 item(s)

But anything that lets me know the topics under which i have (one or more) action item is a success

Problem is, how to exclude the topics that have no action items
Or better yet, can I somehow get a count of action items that I have for each topic ?

Limitations:
The document structure is not set in stone, if another format would make my life easier, I could switch
Preferably no macros/add-ins, etc.
