HI,
how can i remove Heading 4 from the Table Of Contents in Word 2007?
I needed to create the Heading 4 (built in themes only go to level 3) by myself (it was very complicated) but finally managed to get it to work.
The problem is that when i view the properties of my theme it has the following attributes:
Font: Not Bold, Indent: Left: 1,9 cm, Hanging: 1,14 cm, Space Before: 6 pt, Style: Linked, Quick Style, Based on: Heading 3

The built in themes however have it different:


Indent: Left: 1,27 cm, Hanging: 0,89 cm, Level 3, Style: Linked, Quick Style, Based on: Heading 2, Following style: Indryk3

There is a parameter called "Level"which my theme does not have. When i create the Table Of Contents and set "Show levels" to 3 then it will display FOUR levels (three built-in and my Heading 4).

Please help. How to get the "Level" parameter to appear for my theme as well?

Just by reading your post, you could use the following links to review:

Both of these links will provide you with all the information you need regarding styles and TOC construction. Take the time to review them and the payout witll be tenfold.

Hope this helps...

It's true that following Shauna Kelly's procedure for setting up multilevel numbering will fix the problem, and for long-term stability of the document that's recommended. For a quick fix, however, this will do:

• Right-click the Heading 4 box in the Styles gallery in the Home tab, and click Modify.
• In the Modify Style dialog, click the Format button in the bottom left corner and click Paragraph in the menu.
• In the Paragraph dialog, the second dropdown is labeled "Outline level". Change that dropdown from "Level 3" to "Level 4".
• Click OK in both dialogs.
• Right-click the Table of Contents and choose Update Field. In the Update box, choose to update the entire table.
