Hi All,

When our documents are sent for review, most people refer to the section number, e.g. S4.1.2.3.

For some documents there can be 6 levels down from the main section number, e.g. S4.1.2.3.4.5.6, usually these documents are 100+ pages so using the search function would be the quickest way to find where the correction needs to be made. However I've noticed that Word doesn't seem to find section headings unless they're within a table of contents. The issue with this our TOC is only configured to list 2 child headings, e.g. S4.1.2

I just wondered if anyone knew of a way to get Word to find the heading numbers when doing a search?

For reference each heading as been defined as a 'Proper' heading within the Document Styles.

Thanks
