Catherine,Have you tried using insert F when over the text to see what the formatting is?

Hello, Can anyone tell me how I create a heading in Word 2003? What I mean is, I'm aware that sighted people can use the toolbar somewhere to format text as a heading. If they do this, as opposed to just making the font bigger and bold, for example, JAWS will recognise said text as a heading. I am working on a document which must be formatted in a particular way according to someone else's template. So I think I should format headings as "headings" for the required formatting to take effect. I selected the text and went into Format/paragraph. Then chose outline level level 1 from the combobox there. But I am suspicious this hasn't worked properly. Because, though JAWS says "heading level 1" when I arrow to the text, it doesn't bring it up as a headingp when I do JAWS key f6. In other documents JAWS displays lists of headings in this way so this makes me think somehow my text isn't properly a heading, and maybe this means I haven't altered the formatting at all even though I chose it to be outline level 1. Can anyone help?
