How Word automatically generates a table of contents

Recently many students are busy writing papers, a lot of students at the beginning of the article manually made a directory, but their repeated additions and deletions, the tutor constantly modify, each time with a hard to rearrange the directory. To check the page number and the actual page number in the catalogue is the head makes you vomit blood.

Here to share with you, how to add automatically generated directories, the future directory is no longer cumbersome.

Now let's look at this document that doesn't have much formatting, assuming it's your paper.

In Word 2007, catalogs can be generated automatically, and directories are derived from the structure of the document.

Our document has no structure yet, so let's start with the structure. There are two ways of doing this:

　　Method One:

1. Click the Outline View button at the bottom right and switch to outline view.

2, the cursor stopped at a first-level title, the upper left corner of the Drop-down box opened, select 1 level. Similarly, the cursor stops at a second-level heading and the Drop-down box selects Level 2. In this way, the entire document structure is labeled.

3, you can also use the left and right arrows to control the level of the title.

　　Method Two:

1, we in the regular view, click on the Start tab, the style area in the lower right corner of the small button.

2, this time will open the Style box.

3, stop the cursor on the first level of the title, and then select Heading 1 in the style. (The goal here is to add a format to the first-level headings, while the level and hierarchy of the headings are added.) )

4, we switch to outline view, the discovery effect and "method one" is the same.

Hint: You will find that the style is only Heading 1, Heading 2 ... You can select all Styles-> by option-> Press OK.

　　We will now begin inserting the table of contents:

1. Move the cursor to the location where you want to insert the directory, click on the Reference tab, and point to the left directory. Select an automatic catalog. Alternatively, if you need to add processing to the format of the catalog, you can insert the table of contents.

2, here are some options to choose from. (main three: Format inside there are many formats for you to choose, like a condom template, easy to use. The line between the TOC title and the page number can be set with a tab leader. The display level generally does not need to change, accurate to three layers enough. )

3, after the completion of the determination.

4, the problem is that your paper will change later, the title, page number will change, the text of the changes will not immediately reflected in the catalogue. All changes have been made, updated: reference-> update directory-> update the entire directory-> OK.

The premise of building a directory is to use the "style" correctly,

Toolbar leftmost small box attention, usually is "body", the drop-down Arrow has "Title 1, title" And so on, this is the style!

Make the article in Word automatically generate a table of contents:

If the title in the article is formatted as

The first section ... Large title (Level one)

1.1. ... Small headings (level two)

1.1.1 —...... Small headings under small headings (level three)

......

Sect. N.. Large title (Level one)

N.1 ... Small headings (level two)

n.1.1 —...... Small headings under small headings (level three)

To automatically generate the article Directory action:

One, format the title

1. Select all the first-level headings in the article;

2. On the left side of the Formatting toolbar, click Heading 1 in the Styles list.

Follow steps 1, 2 to set the Tertiary heading format to Heading 2, Heading 3.

Ii. Automatic generation of catalogs

1. Position the cursor to the left of the 1th character of the first line on page 1th of the article (the catalogue should precede the article);

2. Execute menu command "Insert/reference/Index and table of contents" to open the Indexed Directory dialog box;

3. In the dialog box, click the Contents tab, after the relevant settings, click the "OK" button, the article's directory automatically generated complete.

Friendly tips:

The catalog page number should be different from the Body page number encoding.

Position the cursor at the end of the table of contents, and perform the insert/separator/next page/OK operation to insert a page break between the TOC and the body.

To perform the view/header and Footer command, position the cursor in the footer of the main page of the body, and click the link to the previous button on the Header and Footer toolbar and the footer of the table of contents;

Perform the Insert/page number command, select the page number format in format, select Start Page number as 1, and click OK.

The page number of the finished body is inserted.

If the table of contents is multiple pages, you can choose a page number format that differs from the Body page number when you insert the page number. Of course, if the directory has only one page, there is no need to insert page numbers.
