Somehow each time when I reopen my document, Word sets my figure text to 'Header 1' even though I set it to normal level before saving and closing? The figure text then appear in the TOC :-( - it's driving me grazy.... Any ideas ?? Thx.

Figure text = Caption?

Check your Autocorrect Options > AutoFormat as you type

Is the option to apply heading styles checked? If so, uncheck it.

thx for the reply :-) have tried to remove it and every other "Auto"-thing regarding header and typography without any luck.... found a odd behaviour though: if I open an earlier version of the document that has no errors and save it as a new version then all is still okay - but if I open the same earlier version and also open my corrupt document along side, and then save my earlier version as a new version, close all documents and then open the new version then it has the same errors as my corrupt document has??? It is like it infests the Word application hehe???

If you can, post a sample document with the problem. When you say "new version" and "earlier," could you be more specific or post copies of both?

How to attach a screenshot or file in this forum.

well I think I have located the problem:

Page 1 is my front page with some text and graphics. On the button of the page I have inserted a Section shift continuing and then a page shift (my Word version is Danish so don't quit know what the pronunciation in the UK version?)

On page 2 my first line says "Table of contents" followed by a blank line and than an auto generated index.
The first line is Level 1 header, second is normal.
Now if I correct all the mistakes I mentioned except line 1 on page 2 ("Table of contents") it all looks good. If I then change line 1 on page 2 from Header 1 to normal text then all the mistakes returns.....

So maybe I am not allowed to have a normal text in the beginning of a new section? ...but than again my good document has normal in the first line??

What is more likely is that the paragraph BEFORE the section break doesn't have a paragraph end after it. This could be causing the two 'paragraphs' on either side of the section break to actually be a single paragraph. Make sure that there is always a paragraph mark in front of every section break.

well it looks like it is the same in both docs ? ver 0.9 works fine as mentioned...

I am thinking the stylename for the Table of Contents heading is probably not changing. But it is possible the style definition is changing because you have set the styles to refresh on opening. This could make that entry appear in the TOC without changing its style.

Can you verify the stylename for the TOC heading is the same in both documents?

Can you check that Developer > Document Template > Automatically update document styles is UNCHECKED in both documents?

And then show us the field code used by the TOC by selecting the TOC and pressing Shift-F9
