Stop repeating entries in table of contents
Hello
I am creating a TOC on a document I am working on.
I have set everything up correctly – style sheets for the page headings which links to the table of contents and it all works fine.
On every page in the document the page heading is repeated, and obviously this gives me multiple entries in the TOC which I don't want.
For example:
Introduction 1
About us 2
About us 3
About us 4
About us 5
Our experience 6
I would prefer:
Introduction 1
About us 2
Our experience 6
The only solution I can think of is to create a new paragraph style for all the page headings I don't want to appear in the TOC, so first instance Style A, every instance after that Style B. The only problem with that is this seems a real work around rather than a solution. The problem is this is a manual solution, so if the pages move around, then the TOC becomes incorrect also if the style sheets are applied incorrectly, this also creates a problem.
Does anyone know a way to make the first instance of a page heading appear automatically in the TOC without a manual workaround?
Many thanks in advance.
Neil
