Creating Your Table of Contents in Word

There are a few ways of creating a table of contents in Word, but only two that you’llever use

These methods work mostly the same in Windows & Mac versions of Microsoft Word.

Using MS Word built-in styles is the faskiểm tra and most commontechnique, và using custom styles takes only a little more work. Sometimes,you’ll want khổng lồ use both techniques in the same document. Once you have a table of contents (TOC) imãng cầu document, you can format it with its own styles. You don’t want khổng lồ format theTOC like regular text, because the formatting can easily get wiped out.

How the Textbook is Organized

Before doing anything to the document, let’s see how it’sorganized. Page 1 is the title, page 2 is blank and will hold the table of contents, page 3is the preface, và after that comes the text. As you scroll down, notice that headings& subheadings are formatted.

On your Mac or PC, go back lớn the Hometab if you’re not already there. Keep your eye on the Styles box on the ribbon,& click the items in the pane khổng lồ navigate through the book.

In Windows, go khổng lồ the Referencestab on the ribbon, cliông xã the Table ofContents button on the left, then choose one of the two built-in tablesfrom the menu. lưu ý that the thumbnails show that Headings 1, 2 và 3 will beincluded.

This works great, but there’s one problem. Before theIntroduction, there is a Preface thatshould be included in the table of contents. And just before Appendix A1 is the heading forthe Appendix, và that should also beincluded. But they weren’t, because they’re both formatted with a custom stylecalled Large heading, & customstyles don’t get included in the mặc định table of contents. The second method of creating table of contents in Word will fix that.
