Click Sections > Sections setup
Click the edit icon next to the Contents section
Set Include notes in contents page to Yes

Note: If a page break has been inserted at the beginning of the note, when the report is output, the note will start on a new page and the software will insert the wording 'continued' in the page header. As a result, for the Include notes in contents page option, if Yes is selected, the note name will be excluded from the contents page. To avoid this issue, the page break should be inserted at the end of the previous note.

Errors on the contents page
