Getting The Appendix, Exhibit and Annex Numbers To Go Into The TOC...

Getting The Appendix, Exhibit and Annex Numbers To Go Into The TOC... Scenario :  In the back of my document, I have APPENDIX A - D and I have had the request made to include the A- into the actual TOC page numbering. Many of you (and this is fine) will put in an "A- " before the numbered Field Code and it is an easy way to get the A- as part of the page numbering within the document footer itself.  Note: this method will not bring in A-1 into your TOC.  Using Heading Styles for the Headings of your Appendices or Exhibits will not by itself do it either.  Let's go over what needs to be done. 1.  Let us assume that we have a four level Multilevel Outline for the main part of the document so Heading levels 5-9 are available for this routine. 2.  Go to Appendix 1 and apply Heading 5 (or the next available Heading) to the Appendix Heading at the top of the page..  In the Multilevel  Outline, make sure you use "Link Level" to the proper Heading Style" ...

Heading 2 Won’t Run In The TOC

Image
  Heading 2 Won’t Run In The TOC Scenario :  We get a call.  When the secretary runs the TOC they do not see the second level of the TOC even though the Level 2 entries have had Heading 2 applied throughout the document. First, I went into “Options” under the TOC Dialog Box and made sure that Heading 2 was in fact included in the TOC.  It was.  When we looked at the document they have a hidden return scenario within the document .  Before there was “the style separator” (Pre-2003) this was the situation:  When the Heading 2 text shared the paragraph with the body text we used to use a hard return with the “ Hidden Attribute ” applied to the hard return.  The Hard Return came in directly after the Heading 2 text and the text after the hidden attribute hard return was set for body text style.   Heading 2 Text 1.1 .   Terms of the Contract .(Hard Return with Hidden attribute applied) Remainder of Para body text.  Remainder of Para bod...

Low Cost Empire Volume 10 - MS Word Fillable Forms For Small Business and Law Firms

Low Cost Empire Volume 10 -  MS Word Fillable Forms For Small Business and Law Firms Books that read like a seminar! I originally wrote this book in 2015 and recently went back to “revamp” the book but people who recently bought it said “don’t touch it” it is fine and very easy to learn from.  So, I left it as is.  You might be working in a top 100 legal or corporate firm or you might be working in a smaller firm.  Either way, if a form needs to be developed within MS Word this book will quickly allow you to understand what needs to be done whether you use the Legacy Package or the newer Content Control package.  I also feel you will be one of the few who will be able to do so. This book is meant for the everyday MS Word User that wishes to learn the solid basics as to creating Fillable Forms in MS Word.  We thoroughly go over both the original Legacy package and the new Content Control package.  Whether you work in legal, medical, insurance or financi...

Showing Both Paragraph And Page In A Cross Reference.

Image
  Showing Both Paragraph And Page In A Cross Reference. Example :  See Section 8.2 on Page 5. 1. There are times when we use Cross Referencing to show both a numbered paragraph location as well as the page that it resides on . Look at the example above: 2. As we can see above, we have not only set a Cross Reference for a particular paragraph that we want to direct the reader of the document back to, but we also want to Cross Reference the page number that the referenced paragraph presently resides on. 3. In order to do this, it is a two step process. First, we have to set the Cross Reference for Paragraph (as shown above in See Section 8.2) and then we have to separately set the Cross Reference for the Page Number (as shown above as Page 5 ).  Note that for the Paragraph , we use Numbered Item and Paragraph .  For the Page Reference , we use Numbered Item and Page Number. Note :  Only those Multilevel Outline headings that have been applied within your documen...

Field Shading On Word Fillable Forms - On or Off

Image
Field Shading On Word Fillable Forms - On or Off  On doing fillable forms, using MS Word 2007-365, (under the Developer Tab ), you have a choice of using the old style fillable forms ( Legacy ) or the newer version which is known as ( Content Control ).  The legacy package works in compatibility mode as well as MS Word document mode .  The Content Control package of fillable forms works in documents saved as Microsoft Word Macro Enabled .  If you do not have your Developer Tab, go to File , Options , Customize Ribbon and check the “ Developer Tab ” in the right side of the Customize Ribbon Dialog Box . Many times we use a hybrid of both the new fillable forms and the old in the same document. Most people don't care if the grey shading is visible on the text fields of the form while others want it off.  It should also be noted that from document to document,  I have seen the setting we are about to discuss both on and off so you have to check.

MS Word Legal: The Strategy Session Volume 2

MS Word Legal:  The Strategy Session Volume 2.   Getting Ready and Structure First:  Clearing up those Issues From The Very Start That Tend To Hold Us Back… Clearing up the very thing that confuses most new MS Word users that is of course Page Numbering and Section Breaks!  I wrote this book only a few years ago but it holds up fine and our students use these methods every day! We teach for the public, top-tier legal firms, outsource legal staff, large corporations and I consistently see one thing that they all have in common: They do not have a routine that they use before they ever start editing a document.  Also, they do not have a routine that they use to properly segment, page number and title all items relating to structure.  This is across the board.  This book goes over these routines piece by piece and this is the same vital and unique info that we personally share with our students including many inside tips that are used in top-tier firms. ...
