Thread: Two row heading showed as one

I have headings named in two rows (e.g.)

Indiana Jones
Raiders of the Lost Ark

Indiana Jones
and the Temple of Doom

but when I insert table of contents I get:

Indiana Jones........................................2
Raiders of the Lost Ark............................2
Indiana Jones .......................................15
and the Temple of Doom..........................15

and I want (automatic) index table like:

Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark.......2
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.....15

How can I do that?

Hi,

If i take your example:Indiana Jones........................................2, with the following code:

Code:

Sub Macro()
Dim i
For i = 1 To End
    Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdWord, Count:=3, Extend:=wdExtend
    Selection.TypeText Text:=" "
    Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
    Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1
Next i
End Sub

you'll have
Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark.......2
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.....15

This code works with Word 2007 and you have to put the cursor after Indiana Jones before the macro.

Bye Indy

zbor,

there's no need for macro code to achieve what you want. If you have a two-line title, make sure to break the line with Shift+Enter instead of just Enter. This will insert a soft line break, which in a table of contents will be ignored, so the title ends up in one line in the TOC.
