Which ones you use depend on what effect you're trying to achieve. The Help topic "Field codes: TOC (Table of Contents) field" has the necessary information, though it might be a bit difficult to understand. The article http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...OCSwitches.htm will also be helpful. If each TOC is supposed to cover a different portion of the document -- for example, one for the main body and one for the appendices -- then you need to insert a bookmark covering each portion, and use the \b switch in the TOC fields to specify which bookmark to include. If both TOCs cover the whole document, but some headings go into one TOC while others go into the other TOC, then you need to use the \f switch. You also need to insert TC fields in the headings, using the same identifiers, and remove any \o switches that would cause headings to be included because of their styles. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org |
