adding user variables to the TOC

[Owen, Clint]

Deirdre,

The TOC is built from specified paragraph styles. If one of the named
paragraphs in the target file contains a variable, the variable text
will show up in the TOC.

HTH,

Clint

Subject: adding user variables to the TOC

Hi all:

I'm on FM 8.0, Windows XP and I just returned from a training course
using Adobe FrameMaker 7.0 Classroom in a Book.  A lot of people have
recommended that book; I concur.  It's a great basic training book.

I have to create a TOC and one of items I want to list in the TOC is a
user variable that is located on the master page of my chapters.  Is it
possible to have the TOC pick up a user variable?  When we were building
the TOC, I didn't see that option anywhere, and when I went to the
reference page to add formatting, I didn't see that I could add it there
either.

Thanks!

Deirdre
