Create numbered list for table of contents 5.2.2
Cannot change format in the table of contents to create a numbered list.
So you cannot create a numbered list for the Table of Contents in iWork Pages 5.2.2.?
You cannot make this:
1. Name of Chapter One.........................5
2. Name of Chapter Two.........................9
You have to live with
Name of Chapter One.............................5
Name of Chapter Tow..............................9

Hi Experts,
We have TABLE OF CONTENTS followed by 100 forms with totally 215 pages.
We have checked in the Exclude from form page count option for TABLE OF CONTENTS form in Group level.
The forms followed by TABLE OF CONTENTS form all are using FORMSETPAGENUM rule in footer.
the very first form followed by TABLE OF CONTENTS form the page number starts at 1 of 215 and the last form ends at 215 of 215.
Now i want to print the Page number for TABLE OF CONTENTS form alone.
How can we do that ? Any thoughts ?
Regards,
RAMAN CHi Raman,
I guess, you have included 'Exclude Page Count' option in Table Of Content (TOC) form.
There is a limitation in studio. The page number functions (FORM PAGE NUM OF/ FORMSET PAGE NUM OF) will be ineffective when we select the 'Exclude Page Count' option in TOC form. Hence, you was not able to print the Form Page Count in TOC form.
The only way to print page count is to deselect 'Exclude Page Count' option. Then you can normally print the TOC Page Count in TOC form. However, thiS TOC page count will add to the Total formset Page Count. The Formset Page Count can be controlled through Postransdal using the script [FORMSET PAGE NUM = TotalPages() - 1]

I have tried to set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2 but have not succeeded. I have read similar questions concerning this but this has not helped me...
When I say numbered lists I mean something extremely important and simple, for instance:
1. Introduction
1.1. Background
1.2. Purpose and Questions
2. The Legality of Clause X
2.1. Legality under Article 101.1
2.2. Legality under Article 101.3
And so on...
Heading 1. is selected as "Heading", 1.1 is selected as "Heading 2", and if I had 1.1.1 it would be selected as "Heading 3" and so on...
I have navigated my way to the Format window, and under the tab "Style" and down to "Bullets & Lists". I have here selected the following: Numbered, Numbers, 1. 2. 3. 4., Tiered Numbers, Continue from previous.
There are several problems with this currently.
First, based on the example it becomes "2. Background" when it should be "1.1 Background" instead.
Second, after writing some body text between the headings and then select a new heading, all the previously selected settings I mentioned above in "Bullets & Lists" have to be reselected.
So, how do I set numbered lists for headings, or so called sub-headings, in Pages 5.2? And how do I keep that selected system of numbered lists saved so I don't have to retype it for every new heading I type? (e.g. so that Pages knows that every time I choose Heading 2, I want it to number the heading in the way selected)
Obviously, manually writing the numbers for every heading is not a viable option, as it makes table of contents problematic and is simply tedious. You need an automatic way of doing it, especially if you write long documents where keeping headings in order is absolutely essential.
Also, reverting back to previous Pages versions (like v. 9 I think?) is not an option as that does not exist on my recently purchased Macbook Pro.
I need to be able to do this on Pages 5.2 and do it automatically.
I appreciate any help with this.iWork '09 is not "outdated" it still works and works extremely well and whilst not perfect with MsWord it is far far better than Pages 5.2 which has a stream of major issues with exporting. It is also way better and faster to use than Microsoft Office.
So what is your time and work actually worth? If it is less than $19.99 for 6 months, you may as well just chuck it in and take that job on minimum wages.
You are assuming things for Office 2014 with absolutely no inside knowledge. Much as we assumed Pages 5 was going to be the long awaited improvement, but ended up being a downgrade to match the iOS version, Microsoft is headed the same way with their mobile versions.
This is not like getting the "latest" pair of pants where you go with the crowd and throw out your cigarette legs which replaced the flares, which replaced your low cuts which replaced your cigarette legs, which replaced…
This is work.
If it does the job and does it well, use it. There is nothing out there to really match what Pages '09 does. Yet.
LibreOffice can do most but not all, but has a UI that only a mother could love. It's great redemption is that it uses both open formats and the standard Microsoft formats and is under active development. It also opens and saves to just about everything. When they finally work out the Pages formats, I'm sure they will open those as well.
I use a lot of professional software. Just because the publisher's marketing department says change the product so we can sell more, doesn't mean you have to pay any attention whatsoever. Adobe being a classical example. Most designers are just ignoring their latest subscription based bloatware and getting on with their work.

Creating a Kindle-friendly table of contents with pages
I'm trying to figure out how in Pages (I just recently bought it and want to use it instead of Word) to create a Kindle-friendly table of contents, so readers can click on a chapter title and go straight to that chapter, for the fiction I want to publish on Kindle. In Word I right click on Heading 1 while the chapter title is highlighted then click Update to Match Selection. Then I create a hyperlink to that chapter title to its corresponding title in the table of contents. This does not work in Pages. Do I need to use the hyperlink option in Inspector? If so I don't know how.
And does anyone know how I can create what Kindle calls "Guide Items", where Kindle users can go to from anywhere within the book?
I suppose I can write everything in Pages and then set up the table of contents and guide items in Word but it would be nice to be able to do it in Pages, thanks.
LyleWell there is a standard body for EPUB - http://idpf.org/epub
And, Apple furnishes the TEMPLATE - the Pages 09 TEMPLATE - automatically (supposedily) makes the TOC links which - then - you can export to EPUB.
Again, the problem I'm daling with is that the Kindle for the iPad, does not see the TOC. It des see it in the Kindle Softward for the Mac - which is different - for some reason. I have authored two books on Pages but Amazon converts my EPUB file to fit the Kindle device itself. -
Adjusting page numbering in the Table of Contents
I have a question regarding adjusting page numbering in the table of contents. I have manually adjusted my page numbering to start at page 3, which is now called page 1. But my table of contents still show this page as page 3, while I want it to be shown as page 1.
How do I do this?
I tried to find an answer somewhere on this forum, but I couldn't find one. Neither could I find a solution in the help file.
I hope you understand my question. I also included the document, which might be of help. Thank you!This answer assumes that your document uses the Default page style for physical pages 1-3. You are going to need two different page styles to accomplish what you want. (I'm guessing you have used a page number offset of -2 to get your physical page 3 numbered as 1 and this simply will not work in the TOC.)
Put your cursor in the Title page (physical page 1) and open the Stylist (F11). Click the Page icon (4th from left) then click the New Style From Selection icon (2nd from right). Give it a name like 'Body'. Before you close the Stylist double click on Default just to make sure you did not change the style of the 1st page.
While you are still on the 1st page click into the footer and remove the page number field assuming you do not want it.
Put you cursor in the FIRST (1st) paragraph of the 3rd page and do **Format > Paragraph > Text Flow tab. In the Breaks section, check the Enable box, if not already checked, then check the With Page Style box, select the Body style from the drop down menu and set the page number to 1.
If the page number field is still in the footer on this page then delete it and insert it again. It should now show 1.
Click into the TOC, right click and select Update Index/Table.
Just in case you have trouble translating this to your version of SO I have fixed your document and have attached it.
* *To change to a new page style while writing your document do Insert > Manual Break > Page Break and select the new style. If you want a new page number you can check that box and set the new number. -
Unable to create Entity objects for tables in TimesTen database using ADF
Hi,
I am not able to create Entity and View objects for tables in TimesTen database using ADF. I have installed TimesTen client on my machine.
I have created a database connection by using connection type as "Generic JDBC" and giving driver class and JDBC URL. I am attaching screen shot of the same.
I am right clicking on Model project and selecting New option after that I am selecting ADF Business components and in it I am selecting Business components from tables and there I am querying for tables.I am getting list of tables and when I am trying to create a Entity object from the table after clicking finish Jdev is closing by itself giving an error.
Can anyone please help me how to create Entity objects for tables using TimesTen as database.I might be missing some jars or the way I am creating connection might be wrong or any plugins required to connect to TimesTen.What is the actual error being given by Jdev? Are you sure that the JDBC connection is using the TimesTen JDBC driver JAR and not some other JDBC driver or the Generic JDBC/ODBC bridge?
Is ADF even supported with TimesTen?

I can't get the page numbers in my table of contents to update when I update the book.
I'm using Framemaker 11 and I have two TOCs in my book: one in English and one in French. Each TOC links to different documents in the same book. The reference page for each TOC is set and correctly displays the heading 1 and 2 I've told it to display, but the numbers do not update when the content in my document files changes to a different page. I've checked the conditional text settings in my document files; they are correct. When I update the book, I choose to update Numbering, All Cross-References, All Text Insets, OLE Links, Generate Table of Contents, Lists, and Indexes. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
I just tested this out and saw the same result as Rick - a book with child books ignores all generated files within the child books. This applies to adding content from them (e.g. their titles) to actually including them in the output. This applies to all versions of FM since v.9!
However, there is a workaround for this. You need to use the hierarchical book structure in the parent book and create Folders for each book that you want to add. Then manually add the generated files (TOC, IX, List of..., etc.) and book to the respective folder. This is what it looks like for two child books in a parent book:
Note that the child book generated files (TOC, IOR) show as just regular files at this point in the parent book. To get the page numbering to be continuous throughout the parent book, you will need to make a couple of passes. First set folder, files and books to have the Numbering continue from the previous (if you want all sequential page numbers). This will set the page numbers correctly except for what they were in the respective book TOCs. You will need to use the starting page number of the child TOC files in each folder (it shows in the Book status bar when click on the TOC file in the master/parent book).
To set the individual book TOCs to be correct in the parent book, open the child book and set the TOC Numbering to start at the page stated in the parent book (status bar). Now update the child book to set the correct (parent book) page numbers in the child TOC. [This is a necessary manual step, as the page number assigned in the parent book is ignored when th child book is individually updated and FM uses 1 to start off the sequence in the child book.] Repeat for each child book in the master/parent book.
The final step is to Update the parent book and create the PDF. You should now have all of the files included in the PDF and the child TOCs should show the correct page numbers of the master book.
This whole process of books within books seems a bit borked and one shouldn't have to be jumping through hoops to include child generated files. Please report this as a bug via: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm -
Hi all -
I'm creating a directory / listings document. At the end of the publication, I need to create a "quick reference" section - with an alphabetised listing of each entry, some key info from each entry, and the page number for each entry.
I've created a unique paragraph style for each of the lines that I need to include here - so the Table of Contents is picking them up successfully.
However, I'm struggling to style the outputs of the Table of Contents the way I need: I want a tab between each of the included paragraph styles that are returned for each entry, and then a line return at the end.
So…
First Hotel name -> Star Rating -> Number of Bedrooms -> etc etc
Second Hotel name -> Star Rating -> Number of Bedrooms -> etc etc
Instead of…
First Hotel name
Star Rating
Number of Bedrooms
etc
Second Hotel name
Star Rating
Number of Bedrooms
etc
Any suggestions?
One important point to note - I'm using CS5.5… an upgrade is in my future, but I want to finish this project first! (Don't want to switch mid-stream.)
Thanks!Thanks. I went there and bulleted align by decimal, but it didn't work on the page. For one thing, when I highlight that page, for some weird reason the numbers from 9 up DO NOT HIGHLIGHT. ! Only the text following those numbers highlight, altho all the other numbers and text following 9 highlight!
Don't know why it would have this weird situation! Seems like a flaw in the design.
I tried moving the little blue cursors above, but I'd need to move it half a step either way to bring those one-digit number decimals in alignment with the rest. For some reason the cursors will ONLY move a full step! So they're out of alignment no matter what I do. Darn!

Can I show outline numbering in a table of contents?
I am using an outline to put together a reference book. This is hte format I'm using:
A. Law and Justice
1. Law of the Land
a. Example
b. Example
2. Law Publication
a. Example
b. Example
B. Government and Civil Officers
1. Requirements for Civil Leaders
However, the table of contents shows, "Law and Justice" instead of "A Law and Justice" It also does not show the second level number. For example, it shows "Law of the Land" instead of "1. Law of the Land". Does anyone know how I can force the table of contents to show the numbering?
Thanks!Pages T.O.C. does not include any List numbering and no you can not force it to.
If you want numbering, you'll have to type it manually.
Or use alternative software. Pages (whatever version you are using) is not compulsory.

Chapter Numbers in a table of contents
Hi Experts,
I'd like to add a table of contents (TOC) including chapter numbers in my template. For example:
Table of Contents
1. Title
1.1 Sub-Title
1.1.1 SubSub-Title
To do so:
• I created a template with a table of contents.
• In the report body, I determine the chapter number using <?position()?>: <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,’H1’, position())?>
• Once the chapter number determined, I write it in the title: <?XDOXSLT:GET_VARIABLE($_XDOCTX,’H1’)?>.DEPARTMENT LEVEL: <?SUBNODE_NM?> - STORE: <?STORE_UNIT_ID?> on which I applied the heading style required
=> When I launch the report, the chapter number appears correctly in the report body but not in the TOC. In the TOC, I only get the title chapter.
Any idea how I could do this?
Thank you in advance,
Sonia.Hi Sonia,
You can directly use position() instead of storing in variables (Refer Template Builder for Word - TOC marker in foreach loop for an example).
But if you want to you variables for some other reasons, then use xsl context specific variables.
Instead of <?position()?>: <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,’H1’, position())?> use
*<?variable@incontext:c1;position()?>*
and instead of <?XDOXSLT:GET_VARIABLE($_XDOCTX,’H1’)?>.DEPARTMENT LEVEL: .... use
*<?$c1?>.DEPARTMENT LEVEL: (formatted as Heading1).*
So on the whole it wold be similar to
<?for-each:group_name?>
<?variable@incontext:c1;position()?>
<?$c1?>.DEPARTMENT LEVEL:
Chapter contents
<?end for-each?>
Now update your TOC (right click -> update field).
Now you should be able to see the chapter numbers both in TOC and report body.
Hope this helps.

How do I create multiple TOC's (Tables of Contents) in one Pages document?
I'd like to have multiple TOC's (Tables of Contents) in one document. This is useful for me because I'd like to have a TOC for the regular chapters, then a TOC for the procedures, then a TOC for the tables in the document (it's a tech manual that I am writing). How can I do this? Thanks for any help you can render, and have a nice day!

If you haven't used a paragraph style it can't create a TOC but you get the blue box with the message.
Paragraph used.
It has nothing to do if there is one main TOC or several smaller TOC to do.
It isn't true that you can only have one TOC in a document. Use styles for your titles and headings. I do and it works fine without section breaks.
You also need to tick which tile and heading you want in the TOCs in the Document Inspector > TOC
Did that.
Thanks to Yvan's quoting from the User Guide, I see where it says each TOC only indexes the material up until the next TOC. Since I had them follow each other, that is why they had no content.
Still it defeats the objective of indexing different material throughout the document if all you get is what is between the TOCs.

How to create dropdown list for custom remote function module
HI ,
I created a custom remote function module for a ztable.table having four fields.But now the requirement is to maintain the dropdown list for input parameter .
For eg: I maintain Input parameter as action.For that Action we have to maintain a dropdown list(display,insert,update and delete values ) in function module.Is it possible.Hi
Try using POPUP_GET_VALUES function module in the begining of the Function module this gives a POP to provide a value to you
In this you can provide a value
Check the import parameters of this Function module if it has COMBOBOX as parameter ( I dont have SAP access at this point of time) you can pass X to it so you get List box for the following fields
Create a domain to field and assing fixed values to it and use it in any table(As this works with only existing tables)
refresh fields.
DATA: fields LIKE SVAL OCCURS 0.
fields-tabname = 'MAKT'.
FILEDS-FIELDNAME = 'MAKTX'.
APPEND FIELDS.
CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_GET_VALUES' " Try copying this in a Test program and execute
EXPORTING
POPUP_TITLE = 'Enter Mail Id here'
START_COLUMN = '5'
START_ROW = '5'
IMPORTING
RETURNCODE = SRETURN

Style Breaks for Table of Contents
I want to generate a Table of Contents from a "Harvard" style outline. The problem I am having is that the TOC pulls all the text from the list item rather than just the heading. So, the outline looks like this:
I. Heading
A. Subheading. Blah Blah Blah Blah...
B. Subheading. Yada Yada Yada....
When I generate the TOC, I want just:
I. Heading
A. Subheading.
B. Subheading.
I've tried to style the blah and yada using character styles but it doesn't seem to override the paragraph style. Word has a "style break" or some invisible code you can insert in the middle of a paragraph to switch styles. I think I could do something like this:
I. Heading
A. Subheading.
Blah Blah Blah.
B. Subheading.
Yada Yada Yada.
But I prefer the text relating to the heading to be in the same paragraph.
Ideas? Cheers!Hi Vivek,
If that is the case do some thing like :
Create a repor (Main) with only employee names
Create another report (Sub report) with all employee details
Insert this sub report in your main report as Ondemand sub report beside your employee name with the name 'click here'
Link both main and sub report using a common field
Now when you click on On demand sub report it will execute the details.
It looks like your employee names report
Thanks,
Sastry
