Hi Arnis. Thank you so much for your reply.

In all the years I�ve been using Frame, I�ve never used the HeadingRunIn tag, so this is new to me. I�ve been experimenting with it all day, and still having problems. I�m sure they are easy to fix, as long as you know what you�re doing.

My cross-refs are fine now, but I�m having trouble with the TOC.

I was wondering if my settings for my Heading1 in the source chapter are causing trouble. Each Heading1 is set to start at the top of a page, with right alignment. The Heading1 tag is actually called Heading1Right, to differentiate from the regular Heading1, which has left alignment. (Not my choice � the client�s. They have a previous book with this format, and they don�t want to change.) I don�t think this should make a difference, but I�m mentioning it just in case.

To make things simple, I changed the pagination of Heading1Right to start anywhere on a page, with left alignment, assuming I can change it back afterwards.

But I�m still having problems:

� In the TOC, I want the two parts of the heading (HeadingRunIn and Heading1Right) to appear together, separated by the dash, and followed by the dot leader and page number. But they appear as two separate lines, and the dash is missing. I�ve been trying to find a way to fix the TOC Reference page to combine them on one line, but I can�t see how.

� In the TOC, the page number for HeadingRunInTOC doesn�t use the tab and dot leaders that I set up. The page number sits right beside the code number (the content of the HeadingRunIn). The tab and dot leaders for Heading1RightTOC DO appear correctly. The tab and dot leader formatting in the Paragraph Designer and Reference page are exactly the same, so I can�t see why they appear different.

� Then I tried deleting the tab and dot leaders from the Paragraph Designer and Reference page for HeadingRunInTOC. Didn�t help � I still get two separate items in the TOC.

� I�ve experimented with and without the RunInHead default punctuation in the Paragraph Designer. It looks fine on the actual page, but doesn�t show up in the TOC.

There must be an easy way to fix all this, but I can�t see it. Can you help?
