Problem

Solutions: If a user is creating a one-level Table of Contents (i.e., the ToC definition and ToC markings are only for Level 1), the user can enter a Line Spacing code of .5" immediately before the [ToC Def] code to obtain a single-spaced ToC. If this code is entered before generating, place a hard return [HRt] and a single line spacing code immediately after the [ToC Def] code. If the ToC has already been generated, place the [HRt] and single line spacing codes immediately after the [ToC End Def] code.

Even though a .5" Line Spacing code has been entered, WP still places the duplicate [HRt] codes in the ToC. Because of this, the table will appear double spaced on the screen, but the spacing codes will cause it to view and print as though it were single spaced.

If you need the table to appear single spaced on the screen, different steps can be taken to obtain a single spaced table. Instead of adding the codes suggested above, the user can create a macro that will search and replace double [HRt]s with single [HRt]s as well as delete the spacing codes.

If the customer is creating a multiple-level ToC and would like the ToC to be single spaced, the following steps will work:
1.      Center the ToC title and press Enter twice.
2.      Go into Tab Set and change the Type to Absolute (Shift-F8, 1, 8, T, 1). Press F7 twice to return to the document.
3.      Turn on Reveal Codes, move the cursor before the [Tab Set] code, and insert of [L/R Margin] code of .9" left and 1" right (Shift-F8, 1, 7, .9, Enter, 1, Enter). Press F7 to return to the document screen, and move the cursor to the right of the [Tab Set] code.
4.      Define the ToC as usual with one exception. Under this method Level 1 is no longer available, so only four levels are available. Therefore mark everything that would have been Level 1 as Level 2 and so on.
5.      Generate the ToC.

This information will also work for WPWin.
