HOW TO CREATE AUTOMATIC TABLE OF CONTENT

-

Automatic Table of Contents
You cannot generate any automatic tables without first using styles effectively throughout your document.  Microsoft Word can scan your document and find everything in the Heading 1 style and put that on the first level of your table of contents, put any Heading 2’s on the second level of your table of contents, and so on.

If you want an automatic table of contents you need to label all of your chapter titles and front matter headings (e.g. “Dedication” and “Acknowledgements”) in the style Heading 1.  All major headings within your chapters should be labeled Heading 2.  All subheadings should be labeled Heading 3, and so on.

If you have used Heading styles in your document, creating an automatic table of contents is easy.

Place your cursor where you want your table of contents to be.
On the References Ribbon, in the Table of Contents Group, click on the arrow next to the Table of Contents icon, and select Insert Table of Contents….
Note: If you are using Word 2013, this option is called Custom Table of Contents.
If you want to change the style of your table of contents (e.g. you want more space between the items on level 1 and level 2 of your table of contents, or you want all your level 1 items to be bold), click on the Modify button, select the TOC level you want to change, then click the Modify button to do so.
If you want to change which headings appear in your table of contents, you can do so by changing the number in the Show levels: pulldown.
Click OK to insert your table of contents.

How to access your PC if you forgot your Windows password . The irony in creating super tough passwords is that they’re easy to forget, or if you scribbled one down somewhere and then loose the paper or it’s been digitally erased, you’re back to square one. Or even minus square one if it was the password to your computer. But all is not lost, it is possible to retrieve your password or even circumvent the requirement.
