I watched this twice and it didnt get me anywhere

Perfect!!! Just what I was looking for

Thank you for this video!!

At 8:10 mark he had me sold enough to watch all of the video's as of lately my assignments have been on time and I've stopped 3x writing time in editing. Yes it is confusing because it's counter productive of what "normal" document formatting is. Thank you Chris and I would like a version of this video where you use the macro's

This was very clear thank you

This was incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for posting! Subscribed :)

Thanks for the video. This helped me properly number the pages in the appendix as A-1, A-2, etc. Your video also helped me properly add the Appendix to the TOC and properly align the Appendix heading to the far left. HOWEVER, the Appendix heading showed up in my Navigation Pane WAY over to the far right (demoted as a the 9th sub-heading i think). How do i make it show up in the far left instead as a main heading??

[@bjohnstoneg3]

Brilliant, wish I had seen your video sooner.

Very useful! thanks

Very helpful thanks

[@BobWoldringh]

In the TOC how could one leave out the page number of Appendix A, B and C etc. Thank for you great video!

I am working on a technical report for work and had inserted my references as "endnotes." I had intended to place the appendix items after the section call references (where the endnotes were at in my document as it was written. It appears that Word is not letting me go beyond the endnotes to insert additional pages, or breaks, etc. Any thoughts on how to make the necessary adjustments. I just want to have References, followed by Appendices in that order for the technical report. I would likely switch page number to A-1, A-2, etc in the first appendix and go on from there with the remaining appendix items if there are any.

[@user-cn5up7jw8u]

how to you make sub-heading for Appendix such as I want to have Appendix A, A.1, A.1.1, etc...

[@amaliastaana6730]

How do you show the Appendix in the Navigation Panel if we make it heading 9? Can you fix that? Thanks!

[@engineeredupgrade]

Hi Amalia, try right clicking on any heading in the Navigation Panel and selecting Show Heading Levels - changing this to Level 9 should show up the appendix heading. I didn't need to make this change on my version of Word, it already shows up.

[@neilius1015]

Hi , I am required to have the title of each appendices section 3 lines below the word Appendix A for each appendix cover page..?? Any help very much appreciated, I've been at this all day!!!

[@engineeredupgrade]

Does using shift+enter help? It'll take me a while to come up with a better solution looking solution (trying to play around with paragraph spacing)

[@neilius1015]

@@engineeredupgrade Hi! Yes, its a kind of work around and its better than simply pressing 'enter' as you say in your video. It presents nicely in the ToC as well. I have been playing around with paragraph settings all day to see if write a title, apply an Appendix style, and then it puts the Appendix name 3 lines above, I'm doing my dissertation and some bright spark put this as a requirement...🙄

[@neilius1015]

@@engineeredupgrade Oh, and thank you!!

He keeps referring to his other videos to understand where he is and what he is doing in this video.

[@lorymusat5007]

Very useful information. Unfortunately very bad filmed. Is not very visible.

[@user-je2bv9mu5q]

This is not at all the best way to do this because you cannot use your navigation pane. Instead, Create a new Style based on Heading 1. Then Call it Appendix 1. Modify the Style so you have the word Appendix before the number. And you can change from 1, 2, 3 to A, B, C if you want. Then the Appendix appears in the navigation pane just as Heading 1 would appear.

[@davidbrennan5772]

way above my head. so unhelpful. My document is an absolute mess now

[@NoName-zi9qs]

17 mins to add an appendix to Word. F MS!

[@genel8918]

This is the most confusing direction I've ever witnessed. He jumps between levels, headings, and paragraph settings in the blink of an eye. Perhaps I'm just too slow to keep up. I stopped watching a third of the way in as my eyes glazed over. Sorry. He seems like a really nice guy. I like his demeanor very much.

long video too much talking
