I have a Word document that will be a template for an audit report. One section will be repeated for each area audited. It has several subsections; one subsection gives required corrective action. I would like to tag these corrective action sections by using a Word style in such away as to be able to provide a list of the corrective actions in a summary at the end of the document, similar to how Word can extract section headings to build a table of contents. I know how to do this with VBA but prefer to use built-in features if possible.
I am using Word 2003. Thanks for any solutions, suggestions, or SWAGS!
OK, for anyone looking, I figured out a rather convoluted way to do this.
Select the paragraph and then Format, Paragraph. Select Heading Level 9 (something larger than what you would ordinarily put in a table of contents). Then make this paragraph a style.
Insert a table of contents, include your new style as level 9, and modify the style of level 9 to be how you want it to look. All of this is done in the Tables dialog.
Finally right-click on the table, toggle field code, and change the levels (probably 1-3 by default) to 9-9 to show only your level 9 style (if it’s not already like that).
If anyone else needs to do something like this (God help you) let me know and I can give more detail.
