General ⇒ toc /part suppress page numbers

[quat]

I am new to LaTex and am having a format problem. I wrote a paper that makes use of parts, chapters, sections and so on. In the TOC I need the parts to be centers and appear without a page number after them. In front of the part number it needs to say Part. The parts page that appears in the main body cannot have a page number on it.

I am using a custom class and sytle that I got from my school and know little about editing it.

Could someone steer me in the right direction.


Thanks

Seems to be a job for titletoc. Read its documentation carefully, make a first approach and ask further questions if necessary.

Hi quat,

welcome to the board!
The package tocloft could also provide a solution for that issue.

Thanks. I have found both of those pakages and am looking into them right now.

Is it possible to keep the existing formatting and just add to it. When I incorporated tocloft into my document it changed my toc format. I would like to keep what was there and just fix what needs to be fixed. I don't want to rewrite all the format just to fix a couple of things.

You wrote that you use a custom document class. Most packages are built to cooperate with the standard classes and, perhaps, the KOMA-Script classes, but with a custom class, anything can happen. Without knowing that class, we can hardly say anything. In most cases, things like table-of-contents formatting are hard-coded in the document classes and are quite hard to change. The titletoc package tries to make it more flexible, but you still have to know the format you want.
