TOC entries in one paragraph
Hi all,
this is my first post and I apologize in advance for errors. I am an Italian researcher in law and political sciences, and I use word (word for mac 2011) to write my scientific articles for Italian scientific journals. For several scientific journals in law, I need to write a "compact" Table of Content of my article after title and abstract, with all entries in one paragraph, without starting a new line after each header and page. If I use ms word TOC (both with styles or TC fields), I get: Table of contents Introduction....1 Paragraph1...3 Paragraph2...5 Conclusion...8 I would need: Table of contents: Introduction, 1 - Paragraph1, 3 - Paragraph2, 5 - Conclusion, 8. How I may customise TOC to avoid to start a new line after page number? Actually, I have to write the TOC manually and create crossref for each paragraph headers, to update page numbers. I would like to use TOC field with styles or TC fields. Thank you in advance, Luigi |

A TOC cannot appear the way you want. It is one line per entry.
Look into the Index feature. |

Charles is right but you can retrofit a table of contents after refreshing it to do basically what you are asking. The following macro could be used to refresh your TOC and then compact it.
Code:
Sub CompactTOCUpdater() Dim aRng As Range, aTOC As TableOfContents Set aTOC = ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents(1) Set aRng = aTOC.Range aTOC.Update With aRng.Find .ClearFormatting .Replacement.ClearFormatting .Text = "^t" .Replacement.Text = ", " .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindStop .Format = False .MatchCase = False .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchWildcards = False .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchAllWordForms = False .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll .Text = "^p" .Replacement.Text = " – " .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll End With End Sub
