TableOfAuthorities.Category property (Word)

  • Article

Returns or sets the category of entries to be included in a table of authorities. Read/write Long.

Syntax

expression.Category

expression A variable that represents a 'TableOfAuthorities' collection.

Remarks

This property corresponds to the \c switch for a TOA field. Values 1 through 16 correspond to the items in the Category list on the Table of Authorities tab in the Index and Tables dialog box. The number 0 (zero), which corresponds to all categories, cannot be used with this property. You can, however, use 0 to specify all categories when you are inserting a table of authorities.

Example

The following example inserts a table of authorities for all categories.

ActiveDocument.TablesOfAuthorities.Add _ 
 Range:=Selection.Range, Category:=0

This example formats the first table of authorities in the active document to include all citations in the first category (by default, the Cases category).

If ActiveDocument.TablesOfAuthorities.Count >= 1 Then 
 ActiveDocument.TablesOfAuthorities(1).Category = 1 
End If
