It's easy to create a reference to a heading in Word: In the Appendix, use only Heading 6 to 9 styles. If you do, the Table of Contents and the page numbering will be a mess. Either base Heading 6 on no style, or base it on Heading 5.ĭo not use any Heading 1 to 5 styles in your Appendixes. You probably need to make it larger, perhaps in the same font and size as Heading 1.ĭon't fall for the trap of basing Heading 6 style on Heading 1.
For example, out of the box, Heading 6 is in a very small font. Modify the Heading 6 to 9 styles so that they meet your needs. To set up the numbering system for your headings, use the techniques described at Controlling numbered headings: An introduction. Heading 6 might be set up to say "Appendix A". So Heading 1 might be set up to say "Chapter 1" or "Part 1" or even just "1".
And we use Heading 6 to Heading 9 in the Appendixes. Therefore, we use Heading 1 to Heading 5 for headings in the main body of the document.
You have to use the built-in Heading styles in order to be able to use their "magic" properties (described at Why use Word's built-in heading styles?). Technical note Numbering the headings in the body of the document and the Appendixes Referring to captions for figures, tables etc (eg "see Figure A2.3, below") 6. Referring to headings (eg "see Chapter 3, above") 4. This page shows you how to do numbering for headings, figures, references to figures and page numbers in a document that contains several "Chapters" (or "Parts" or "Sections") followed by one or more Appendixes.Ĭontents of this page Headings Figures, tables, charts etc Page numbers and Tables of Contents Technical stuff 1. But it doesn't all work well in an Appendix. The built-in Heading styles have all kinds of "magic" properties: they can be used to number Figures or Tables, refer to those Figures or Tables, build tables of contents, tables of figures and so on.
But they don't cope well with Appendixes. Word's built-in heading styles (Heading 1, Heading 2 and so on) are terrific for numbering headings in your document. Only then can you create a cross-reference to these captions in the text. Use Heading 6 to 9 styles for the Appendix.Ĭreate a new label (Figure_Apx) to number captions for figures in your Appendix. Use Heading 1 to 5 styles for the main body of the document. Use the built-in heading styles to number headings and figures in an Appendix
