TOC defaulting to Page 3

S

Susan B. Quinn

I have a template set up that has a Table of Contents already inserted so the
users just have to update when they have created their document.

When the document is emailed it reverts all entries to 3. The only common
thing I can see is that it mainly happens when people open it from Microsoft
Outlook rather than downloading the file.

Is this a bug in Office or is there something I can do??

Thanks in advance

Susan

If you are using Word 2003, the problem is likely to be the Reading
Layout view. To turn it off: On the Tools menu, click Options. Click
the General tab. Clear the "Allow starting in Reading Layout" check
box. Click OK.

Note that "Allow starting in Reading Layout" is an application
setting; it must be turned off for each user.

Hi Stefan,

thank you. That appears to work and explains why I never experienced the
problem myself.
