<div>
have you tried to add the same field codes <br />
<br />
{ STYLEREF &quot;Heading 1&quot; \r \ * MERGEFORMAT }<br />
<br />
{ STYLEREF &quot;Heading 2&quot; \r \ * MERGEFORMAT }<br />
<br />
???
</div>


have you tried to add the same field codes

{ STYLEREF "Heading 1" \r \ * MERGEFORMAT }

{ STYLEREF "Heading 2" \r \ * MERGEFORMAT }

???

<div>
Then I get either 2 or 3 entries when I expect one. &nbsp;For example:<br />
<br />
Chapter 1 1.1 1.1.1<br />
<br />
I just want it to show the current section number, regardless of how many levels it is.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Am trying to including the section number in the heading of a Word 2013 document.<br />
<br />
Currently I have <br />
<br />
{ STYLEREF &quot;Heading 3&quot; \r \ * MERGEFORMAT }<br />
<br />
in the field code, which works well as long as the page contains a heading 3. &nbsp;Some pages only have a Heading 1 or Heading 2; however, and then the header doesn't update until another page with a Heading 3 appears.<br />
<br />
I tried putting in { SECTION } but all I get is a single-digit number, not something like &quot;5.2.1&quot;.<br />
<br />
Please point me in the right direction! &nbsp;Thanks.

Microsoft Word is a commercial document editing program that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It features numerous text-editing tools for creating richly formatted documents, along with tools for the use of macros in Word documents. Word's native file formats are denoted either by a .doc or .docx file extension. Plugins permitting the Windows versions of Word to read and write formats it does not natively support, such as the OpenDocument format (ODF) are available. Word can import and display images in common bitmap formats such as JPG and GIF. It can also be used to create and display simple line-art.
