How to remove Leader Dots

Hi,

Does anyone know how to remove the leader dots that are in highlights in the attached? This TOC was generated by a macro, when you run the macro in a blank doc, the dots are not there, when I run it on this document, the dots are there. Is this a setting?

Just curious, have you looked at the macro to see if there might be a clue there?

Dvenice,

Yes, it is a setting of the TOC definition. Could you post the macro so we can have a look. Of course you won’t get leader dots in a blank document as it will not generate any TOC entries.

If this is a TOC field, likely those are set by either direct formatting in the original or by the TOC styles in the document where the macro is being run.

Why are you using a macro to insert a TOC?

You could use, instead, AutoText if the regular settings are not to your liking.
