Inserted file headings

[John Hart <jh...@testra.com>]

I'm trying to build a table of contents, and put the chapter title
in the file properties.Then added a heading with the title field.

When the file is inserted into the master document, the heading for
all the chapters are replaced with the title of the master document.

The index function is set to use the file headings to make the table
of contents, so it does nothing.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

It didn't put it's self into the table, but did number it's self
and increment the count. Clicking on the index and changing the
style to none fixed it.

If anyone is interested in how to set up Master Documents with
generated numbering, (no outline) respond and I'll post my notes
when they're finished.

Problem resolved, file properties aren't transferred to the master document,
and there are two types of headings, I was using the wrong one.

Now there's only one problem left, chapter numbers don't show in the 
table of contents.

I traced it back to this:

edit the "Heading 1" style (right click -> modify); now, go to the 
Numbering tab:
you will find a drop-down menu that allows you to select a style from 
the List Styles!

The problem is the drop-down menu doesn't work.

Changed to "Heading", which enabled changing styles, and selected 
Numbering 1.

Now everything is working, except it starts with chapter 2,

anyone have any ideas?
