Hello,
I'm using Word 2003 and experiencing behavior from the system that I don't
want.
I have inserted a Table of Contents that gets created automatically from the
Heading styles I've used for formatting.
The problem is, when I click "Update Field" on the Table of Contents and
select "Update Entire Table", it updates the Table of Contents but places it
inside a frame*.
This wasn't too big a problem until my TOC got long enough that it spans two
pages. When it gets placed inside a frame, it just runs off the page rather
than wrapping to the next.
It's not a huge issue, because I can right-click the frame and select
"Format Frame" -> "Remove Frame" and the TOC stays formatted correctly.
(If I "Remove Frame" but then "Update" the TOC, then Word puts it back
inside a frame and I have to "Remove Frame" again).
But I'd like to know how to fix this so the "Update" of the TOC doesn't
place the TOC inside a frame.
(*When I say "frame", I'm referring to the kind of frame you'd get if you
added a Text Box to your document, and then selected "Format Text Box" ->
"Text Box" -> "Convert to Frame")
Thanks!
