Subject: atw: Word page numbering question


Ok all you gurus of the Word kind - I have a question!
I have a document template (Word 2002 / XP) which has the TOC in its own
section (page numbering lower case roman), a main section (page
numbering arabic, starting at 1), and an appendix section (page
numbering upper case roman, starting at I).

My issue is in the appendix section. I would like the page numbering in
the appendix to say A-1, A-II, ... , B-I, B-II, etc - and for this to be
reflected in the TOC.

I have created styles for the appendix headings (Appendix A, Appendix B,
etc), so if I use a styleref field in the footers, I get Appendix A-I,
Appendix A-II, ... , Appendix B-I, Appendix B-II, etc. This is fine -
I'd prefer just the appendix letter followed by the page number, but I
can live with what I have.

The thing is, these are not reflected in the TOC at all - I just get I,
II, ... I, II, etc - not terribly helpful. The only way I can see to
carry the chapter number into the TOC is if I use the "include chapter
number" - but then it will only allow me to use the standard Heading 1-9
styles, and not my Appendix heading styles. This is a pain!

I could modify some of the lower level styles, Heading 6-9, to become
appendix heading styles, and then reset their levels in the TOC options,
but this template is for other people to use - using Heading 6 for
Appendix Heading 1 will really really confuse them.

Another option is to use continuous page numbering throughout the
appendix section, so although the Appendix letter doesn't prefix the
page, at least I don't have a bunch of TOC entries all starting at page
I.

Does anyone have any ideas on this?
