Why does the text refuse the styles ?

[joanajoana]

I am trying to build a Table of Contens for a really long text (250 pages, app. 65 chapters) but the titles of the chapters are in the middle of the first sentence :



"If this would be the sentence THE TITLE WOULD BE ONLY THIS and then the text goes on"... etc etc

so I define "THE TITLE WOULD BE ONLY THIS" as heading I and leave the rest as "Normal"

but when I go back and upadate the Table in page 1 he assumes the WHOLE sentence is Heading 1...! I select "If this would be the sentence" and apply "Normal" but nothing changes !!!!

This happens in every chapter of course, so my table of contents is simply not working.

What to do ?


Thank you!
Joana

ps. in the image attached only "A Descida à Cave" is HEADING 1 but he assumes the WHOLE sentence as title...
