== Tables of Contents ==
+
 
+
=== How do I insert a Table of Contents into my document? ===
+
Before inserting a Table of Contents,
+
the Stylist must be used to identify headings.
+
 
+
To mark headings:
+
 
+
* Highlight the paragraph heading.
+
* Choose Format -> Stylist from the pull-down menu.
+
* Double-click on your choice of Heading Level from the dialog box.
+
* Mark all headings in your document as described above.
+
 
+
To insert the Table of Contents:
+
 
+
* Place your text cursor at the location where you would like a Table of Contents
+
* From the pulldown menus, select: Insert -> Indexes -> Indexes...
+
* In the dialog that appears, make sure you are on the "Index" tab, then select the index "Type:" to be "Table of Contents"
+
* You may want to adjust other settings in this dialog to create the type of TOC desired. For example, if you want a table of captions, you would click on the box next to "Additional Styles" and select your caption style.
+
* Click on "OK"
+
 
+
 
+
=== How do I update my table of contents (TOC)? I've added more data and it does not reflect my new headings. ===
+
Click inside the TOC (so that your text cursor is blinking somewhere inside it), then right-click to get the context menu. Select "Update Index".
+
 
+
 
+
=== How do I make my Table of Contents be hyperlinks to the relevant part of the document? ===
+
When you create the Table of Contents you have the opportunity to create hypertext links. You can also edit the Table of Contents later to create or remove the hyperlinks.
+
 
+
In the dialog "Insert Index/Table" in the "Entries" tab, put the cursor in the blank area before the "E#" entry and click on the "Hyperlink" button. Now put the cursor in the blank area after the "#" and again click on the "Hyperlink" button. Now when you create the Table Of Contents it should be hyperlinked.
+

+
=== How to omit a heading style from a table of contents ===
+
 
+
A user may wish to omit a heading style, say Heading 1, from the list of
+
headings that are entered in a table of contents. Here's how to do that:
+
 
+
# Click Insert > Indexes and Tables > Indexes and Tables
+
# Click on the icon with the 3 dots that lies to the right of "Outline"
+
# Select Level 1 and, in Paragraph Style, change "Heading 1" to "(none)"
+
# Click "OK"
+
 
+
This "disconnects" Level 1 from Heading 1. Another approach would be to change
+
Level 1 to Heading 2, Level2 to Heading 3, etc.
