Use of RD field returns error

T

Tracy

I'm trying to use the RD field to create a TOC that spans
several documents. In a test case, I've created two
documents and a title page. I've saved all three docs to
the same location. I insert the toc, then add two RD
fields as follows: { RD \f "document1.doc" \fc} The \fc
was added, as were the quotes, when I added the .doc
extension.

The error returned is "Cannot open file referenced on
page1.

I created two RD references - the second duplicates the
first,except it is named document2.doc

Please Help if you can!

Hi Tracy,

The \f switch says to use relative referencing, so the field should look
like:
{RD "document1.doc" \f}

Well, it almost worked like a charm.

The field is working - i get the text from the files, but
in place of a page number, I get no bookmark defined. I
used a Heading one style, and it is set to use this in the
TOC. Any ideas??

Hi Tracy,

Sounds like your TOC field might have a:
\n switch, which will cause it not to display page numbers; and/or
\z switch, which will cause it not to display page numbers in Web view.

Cheers
