Removing autonumbering from headings in TOC but keep numbering in

[cecij22]

I have a document with two levels of heading styles:

A. Heading 1
1. Heading 2

I have them set up as heading styles within my document. I want them to
remain as heading styles with the appropriate heading numbering in my
document but I want my TOC to look like this:

A. Heading 1...........................page #
Heading 2...........................page #

Is there any way to make to keep the heading numbering in my document intact
but suppress ONLY the Heading 2 autonumbering in the TOC?

Hi,

Place your cursor anywhere within your table of contents and press Alt+F9.
You should see something like the following instead of your TOC.

{ TOC \o "1-2" \h \z \u }

Add \n "2-2". In the case of my example, the result would be as follows.

{ TOC \o "1-2" \h \z \u \n "2-2"}

Then press F9, select the option to update the entire TOC, press Enter, and
finally press Alt+F9.

Hi,

I'm sorry. The method that I described will hide the page number, not the
outline number.

You will have to use a separate style for the *text* of Heading 2, and
format the paragraph mark (¶) between the two paragraphs as hidden, to
create the appearence of one paragraph:

1 Heading 1 text here¶
1.1 ¶ <-- Heading 2; format the paragraph mark as hidden text
This is my custom style applied¶

When you hide nonprinting marks (use Ctrl+Shift+8 as a toggle) the last two
paragraphs in the above example will appear to be in the same line.

Exclude Heading 2 from your table of contents, and add your custom style
instead. For example, change { TOC \o "1-2" \h } to { TOC \o "1-1" \t "My
custom style,2" \h }.

To show/hide field codes, use Alt+F9. Press F9 to update fields.

A caveat, though: I believe that formatting the paragraph mark of a numbered
paragraph as Hidden sometimes results in the number itself being Hidden, at
least in some versions of Word.

And I bet that those versions don't support the style separator, either.

IIRC, there may even have been an issue with the style separator in the
first version in which it appeared, but I'm quite vague on this since I
almost never use numbered headings.
