Page Numberring by heading in a Manual document
Hi
I have been writing a manual that is now almost 200 pages long, using basic formatting and table of contents, numerical page numbering (starting from table contents. I would like to change the page numbering so that each major header (category)can have its own page numbering sequence eg: Debtors Processes Invoicing DP 1 Receipts DP 3 Creditors Processes Processing invoices CP 1 ..... ..... Making Payments CP25 Stock Receving Stock St 1 Can anyone help with some guidance as to if an how this can be effected with all the information contained in the one word document - previous searches have indicated that I need to process each header or section as an individual document. This is not preferable, as the purpose of renumbering is that there are master copies of the manual, but relevant people can receive just sections of the manual, but with pages in sequence. Many thanks for your help |

Page Numberring by heading in a Manual document
If you insert a Section Break between each category, you can (Via the Format
Page Number dialog) set the page numbering in each section to re-start at 1, If you unlink the Header/Footer in each Section from that in the previous Section, you can then have the insert the apha characters that go with each category. It is not however possible to have the table of contents pick up those alpha characters. -- Hope this helps.

Page Numberring by heading in a Manual document
Thanks - your info was absolutely sopt on - even a novice like me was able
to get it working. one more question for you, using the auto table of contents format and sections and page numbering, can I also hyperlink the table of contents so that we can click on an item and go straight there??

By default, the Table of Contents entries are hyperlinked. Use Ctrl+Left
Click to go to one of the items. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
