For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Doug Grossman responded to my suggestions concerning how to eliminate
shading in a Word-generated TOC: <<For the field shading, wouldn't it be
Tools>Options>View>Field Shading=Never? Or are we talking about two
different things here?>>
Good point. I assumed, without checking, that Shana was reporting a problem
with the printed TOC, but as you note, it might well have been only a
display problem in which the shading doesn't print. Your approach would
solve a different problem from the one I tried to solve, so Shana should try
both to see which works best in her situation.
