Text Formatting ⇒ Table of Content: add "Chapter" in ToC

[isix]

Good day!

I have the following issue regarding the way Table of Content looks:

This is what the table of contents pages currently looks like:

Table of Contents
1 Introduction ....... Page #
1.1 Really Introducing ....... Page #
2 The Data ....... Page #
2.1 About the Data ....... Page #

But I wouldlike to have the following style:

Table of Contents
Chapter 1 Introduction ....... Page #
1.1 Really Introducing ....... Page #
Chapter 2 The Data ....... Page #
2.1 About the Data ....... Page #

That means I would like to have the word "Chapter" printed in front of the chapter index in the Table of Contents. By the way, the word "Chapter" should not appear in front of the indexes of the sections and the subsections.

Is this do-able? How can I achieve this?

depends on your document class. The memoir class supports this out of the box by placing

\renewcommand\cftchaptername{\chaptername~}

in the preamble

If you are not able to use memoir, then tocloft may be able to do this, but it has been a while since I had a look at that package.

how to make this looks like:
Chapter One: instead of Chapter 1?

In the ToC or in the text?

In the ToC you have have to do some hacking

Thanks. But how to make the chapter name directly follows the chapter number. For example, in my case, the ToC appears like this:

Chapter One:....Name1
Chapter Two:....Name2
Chapter Three: Name3

The dots are used just to fill the spaces

I want this to look like this:

Chapter One: Name1
Chapter Two: Name2
Chapter Three: Name3

Thanks in dvance

Which version of memoir are you using?

try adding \listfiles before \documentclass, and then look in the log file.

You seem to be using an old memoir
