... I want to insert Word Docs into my document, but I don't want

D

Dr. Darrell

I am typing a large Document.

I have created a Document Style, which I have provided to several of my
associates. They in turn will type several chapters/sections.

I will insert those files into my Document.

My Document Style Includes a Table of Contents as waell as a Table of
Figures. I want the TOC's and TOF's to Remain as they were originally typed,
but I would like my final document to include a TOC which only identifies the
chapters/sections that I have inserted.

How do I keep my TOC and the previously created TOC's from automatically
updating?

Before you insert any files into your document, go to each TOC, click once
in it, and press Ctrl+F11. That locks the TOC field so it won't update.

If you later want to update a TOC, click in it and press Ctrl+Shift+F11 to
unlock it, then press F9 to update, and Ctrl+F11 to lock it again.

There is a switch in the IncludeText field that tells it to not update
fields in the included material. Check in help.
