General ⇒ References appears TWICE in ToC???

[scheydec]

Hi all,

I'm using TeXShop with BibTeX and apacite for the style to write a dissertation, and for some strange reason, "References" is appearing twice in my Table of Contents (with the same page number for each entry).

At the end of my main .tex document, I have

I'm using two files for the Bibliography because one is neatly generated by Zotero, but the other (dissrefsfixes) has to be manually edited for oddball citations. FYI, taking out the second item and making it just

doesn't help.

This is a .tex file and related .sty and .cls files that have been handed down in my department, so I didn't create it. I've just added a few bits here and there to make it suit my needs. But I _think_ I understand what everything does, and I've searched all over for anything that might be generating the second References entry in the ToC.

Here is the header of my document:

Run LaTeX here

Any idea what might be causing the problem? It's driving me buggy! Even a hack to get rid of it would be fine, because I can't submit my dissertation until I get this fixed!

Thanks!

[localghost]

Do you know anybody else here on the board who has the used document class at hand [1]? At the moment the problem is incomprehensible.

I asked the person who gave me the file (and thus was the last person to use it), and he didn't have the problem.

What kind of text should I be looking for in a file? In other words, what generates the entries in the ToC?

Thanks!

[localghost]

Obviously you didn't understand what I have written and you haven't read the important information I referred you to. Please do so and you will know what I mean. Otherwise this will come to nothing.

[scheydec]

I did read it before I even posted, and I thought I was complying. Please don't flame me because I'm new to LaTeX and to this forum.

What am I violating? I thought I provided an example. Is it because I said I'm using TeXShop? I thought my problem was more general than the package I'm using.

Sorry if I'm causing problems, but I'm just desperate to get this fixed.

[localghost]

I did read it before I even posted, and I thought I was complying. Please don't flame me because I'm new to LaTeX and to this forum. […]

Then there are many things you didn't understand. And flaming would look much different. And even new members should be able to read the essential topics of this board.

[…] What am I violating? I thought I provided an example. Is it because I said I'm using TeXShop? I thought my problem was more general than the package I'm using. […]

The content behind the link I gave you as well as the Board Rules clearly describe what to do in your case. Nobody in this forum has the special document class that you are using at hand. So you have to upload it as attachment to the forum server or give a link where to find it. I hope I have now been clear enough. Shouldn't be too hard to understand.

[scheydec]

Sorry! I thought the code I put in was enough, and didn't realize the distinct meaning of "document class". I think I understand now - you want my .cls file, so I'm attaching it.

I'm also attaching the log file, although there's nothing I see in there. Let me know if there's anything else I should attach. (apacite is a standard package, so I'm not attaching that)

It looks like both apacite and the documentclass insert the table of contents in the TOC. Obviously you don't want them both doing it. Try changing:

That should prevent apacite from doing it.

[scheydec]

That works!! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!

I had no idea that there were 'switches' or whatever you call them that could be used with the usepackage.

Thanks again!

[frabjous]

You should read the apacite package documentation. It is available on CTAN (and quite likely is already on your harddrive somewhere).

Let me also remind to mark the thread as solved, according to the Board Rules, before Thorsten has to.
