Outline levels & Page Breaks
Im trying to add outline levels to headings in my word document and it
works to certain degree. The only headings that dont dont convert to outline levels correctly are ones that are at the top of the page with a page break before them. For example. I have sub headings that I want to assign as level 2. I go into Outline view and use the drop down on the outline toolbar to assign levels to these sub headings. Most of them work fine and a little cross appears next to them when I assign them to level 2 (which is what I expect to happen). but.... as soon as I try to assign level 2 to a heading that has a page break before it, it looks like it has worked but I get no little cross, just a minus sign. Word is telling me that the heading is indeed level 2 but the body text underneath it isnt a part of it. why is this? |

G'day "KTJ" ,
Best bet is to ensure you use styles for your headings, and define these styles at the appropriate outline level. Easy usage sees the use of the built-in styles Heading 1-9 Steve Hudson - Word Heretic steve from wordheretic.com (Email replies require payment) Without prejudice KTJ reckoned: Im trying to add outline levels to headings in my word document and it works to certain degree.
