MS Word Legal and Corporate- I Did What You Said and I Still Do Not See It… Scenario :  Secretary calls.  She said that see cannot see the Headers and Footers.  They were missing altogether.  She explained that she wants to especially see her footer in order to see her page numbers.  Got it so far? The first thing I did was to ask her to switch over to Print Layout View because in Draft View , you will not see your Headers and Footers.  Well she did that, and nothing happened.  Still no header and footer.  All she sees is a divider line between each individual page . Well, if that is the case, we need to turn on the setting that will allow us to see our headers and footers in Print Layout View. Go to  File ,  Options ,  Display , place a check mark next to “ Show white space in Print Layout View .”  She will see them now.  And yes, even if you cannot see your Headers and Footers, you can see them if you go to Print - the...

Adding Categories To Your Table of Authorities

Image
Adding Categories To Your Table of Authorities   Many people still generate their Table of Authorities using the MS Word Generic package .  Some firms use 3rd party software such as " Best Authority ". We were working on a large Table of Authorities.  All the entries needed to be marked.  There were cases , statutes , rules , as well as state cases . Within the Mark Citation dialog box it was noted that there was no State Cases category entry nevertheless, the attorney wanted the state cases separated out. 1.  We do not want to go down the road of running the TOA where all the cases were clumped together (Federal and State) whereupon we first had to separate them out manually.  You know that would be both time consuming and each new turnaround of the document would present a new set of separation and unnecessary work. 2.  MS Word does a decent job at generating the TOA provided that we help it to do so.  So let us see the very simple solution 3....

  MS Word Legal and Corporate - Get It Done Please… Scenario :  Attorney has a 47 separate Heading document.  The “Conclusion” Heading keeps saying 48 instead of Section 47.  Each separate section is being controlled by the style Heading 1.  With me so far?  For the first order of business, I ask the secretary if she would go into the multilevel outline dialogue box and confirm that Level 1 is “ Linked ” to Heading 1.  That was confirmed. I then had her go to the conclusion page ( Control End ), and strip the Heading 1 style off of the conclusion title.  Of course we used Control Shift N , and I then had her reapply the Heading 1 but it still read Section 48 when it should read Section 47. Meanwhile the attorney is asking what is going on and where is the document. Everything else up to the end of Section 46 was fine and I noticed that there was a page break to separate the Conclusion page.  I placed my cursor on the page break and when looki...
