MS WORD: Is there an easy way to create a table of contents in word?
One way to have Word create a table of contents for you (that will be updated if page numbers change later) is to use heading styles. Select headings in the document and apply different levels of heading style to them (i.e., highlight the text, and under Format… styles… scroll through the left box until the heading styles are visible, and select one that reflects its level of importance). Once that is completed for everything you would like included in the table, move the cursor to where you would like the table of contents inserted and select Insert… Index and tables… Table of Contents. Word automatically pulls text in heading styles as table entries, and the page number listed in the table will change if text is added or deleted.
