Ignoring a portion of table titles in TOC
Joe Presson 12/31/2008 9:07:01 PM
Is there a way to replace a portion of table titles in the TOC (for example,
by adjusting the position counter at the point where the row of dots would
start (the dots that are generated to start at the end of the table title and
run to the start of the page number) so that the dots start earlier in the
line, thereby obliterating/replacing the last, say, 10 characters from the
table title? The full title needs to stay with the table in the text, but
the last word needs to be "hidden" in the TOC.

Hi Joe,

No. You'll have to modify the heading in the Table (eg by putting the 'problem' word in a borderless textbox or another cell [eg by
splitting the cell] with a different applied Style)
