TOC lists page numbers in Roman format, ref pages in Arabic format
The section which contains my preface and TOC has a footer that show page
nunbers in the Roman format. The next section has a footer which show page nunbers in the Roman format. When I generate the TOC (in the first section) the page numbers in the TOC are displayed in the Roman format. How do I get the TOC to display the Arabic format? |

TOC lists page numbers in Roman format, ref pages in Arabic format
If you want the TOC to show page numbers in Arabic format, you'll have
to choose that setting in the Page Number Format dialog box: Place the cursor in the section whose page numbering you want to modify. On the Insert menu, click Page Numbers. Click the Format button. Choose the desired "Number format". Click OK, and then click Close. Update the TOC to see the change. See also: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...rontMatter.htm Note that it is possible to format page numbers in the document different from those in the TOC. If this is what you want, in addition to the steps described above, you have to modify the page number field for the section in question. Here's how to do that: Press Alt+F9 to change field codes. You'll se the Page number field as follows: { PAGE }. Type \* roman \* upper so that you have: { PAGE \* roman \* upper }. Press F9 to update. Click Alt+F9 again to hide field codes. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Patrick Luijpers" wrote in message ...

If this is what you want, in addition to the steps described above, you have to modify the page number field for the section in question. Clarification: Also note that if you want to modify the Page field code for a specific section, you must unlink sections or otherwise the modification will be for all of the linked sections, too. To unlink a section: ViewHeaders and Footers. On the Header/Footer toolbar, use the Show Next and Show Previous buttons to move between sections (if necessary). Click the Same as Previous button to turn that setting off (by default, the button is activated/turned on). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP |
