Guest

Hi everyone!!

I created a TOC based on the content inside a word document, it works fine.
But recently, i added content to that document and ive been adding a lvl 4
outlining i guess you would call it..

But when i do an update on my TOC, it doesnt show the lvl 4 indents into my
new TOC.

What is going on?

ive got 3 lvls so far, there working great, but the lvl 4 that i just added
is not being shown in my TOC once i update it....

Im using the Outlining tool bar to do this, but lvl 4 is not being pick up
at all..

Please advise...

View the TOC field code (Alt+F9). If it has an \l switch at all, it probably
says 1-3 (which is the default). If the switch is there, change it to \l
1-4. If it is not there, add it. Then update the field again.

If you didn't define the TOC to recognize four levels (by default Word creates
TOCs only for three), then you need to either edit the TOC field code to allow
for four levels or recreate the TOC and specify four levels.
