Editing Your Table of Contents
|
Microsoft Word creates a Table of Contents dynamically. After editing your document, you may need to update your Table of Contents.
It cannot be edited directly, but the source that informs it can be modified. To do so, follow the instructions below.
- Right-click on your Table of Contents.
- A submenu will appear.
- Choose the option Update Field.
- The Table of Contents Update dialog will appear.

- If the only change in your document involves pagination, enable the Update
Page Numbers Only field.
- If you have changed the text in your Headings, added or deleted Headings,
enable the Update Entire Table field.
- Click on the OK button.
- Your Table of Contents will be updated immediately.
