It's also a good way to try. Thank you.

My linked Word document in RH project contains Heading 1 that set as pagination. And text formatted as Heading 1 is numbered.

When I generate topics, the topic name is '1. Introduction', for example. So how to remove '1.' in this topic name automatically ?

Many thanks.

As far as I am aware the problem is that whilst the number is automatically added every time you use the style in Word, it is ultimately part of the text of the heading when it comes across to RoboHelp.

I haven't tried it but the only thing I can think of is to create a copy of the template used for the document and remove the numbering. Whenever you want to update RoboHelp, you attach the copy template and update all instances of the numbered headings. Afterwards relink the old template. Take backups first in case it all goes belly up.

@Jeff - Your post contains a link to the post. Did you mean to paste something else in?

I am wondering if this is what you mean.

If so I haven't ever needed to use that but it looks like a candidate for the job in hand. Can you add any more as to how goldfish184 would use it?

Oh it see what it did - I was using the term "[Source]" in my response.
