Hi Uzma,
 
The List View Web part that you are using to display the pages with is a
little limited in the amount that you can customize the way it looks and
behaves.
 
A good web part to investigate is the Content Query WebPart.  With this
one, you can display items from lists (for example, your pages library)
and with some XSLT you can define the look and behaviour of the web
part.  So with this, it is possible for you to display a heading, and
link it through to the actual page.
 
Take a look at this article by Heather Solomon:

Also, for ref, these MSDN articles:

Subject: [OzMOSS] List Views and Links


I'm getting on very well with the first phase of Sharepoint development.
It's a massive improvement on the current Intranet that I have at the
moment. We have a notice board which is in one HTML page and we manually
put in data such as title, content, author and date. With sharepoint,
I've designed a really cool page and able to add in fields such as "for
the attention of", level of importance etc. 
 
Hopefully, this will recieve great response from the project board. 
 
However.. I've hit a snag.
 
I've created a custom view in my page library which contains my notices.

 
This displays type (so if it's .doc, .aspx etc) which is linked, article
date, title, importance, for the attention of.
 
I would like users to click on the title to read what the notice is
about. At the moment, only the type is linked and all other options are
not suitable. 
 
I cannot find Title (linked to page) field in this custom view. 
 
Should I create another field called Article Title as a custom type and
apply it to my content type that I'm using.. should that remedy the
problem so users can click on this once the view is modified? 
 
I'm concerned that the "out of the box" title field is causing the
problem. 
 
Your advice much appreciated. 
 
Uzma
