Objectifs :
This document aims to guide readers on how to create multiple tables of contents in a complex document using field codes in Microsoft Word. It will cover the steps to mark subsection headings, add TC fields, and customize the table of contents for better navigation.
Chapitres :
-
Introduction to Multiple Tables of Contents
In large and complex documents, providing multiple tables of contents can significantly enhance reader navigation. This guide will demonstrate how to utilize field codes in Microsoft Word to achieve this. -
Setting Up Subsection Headings
To begin, we will add TC fields to each subsection heading. Follow these steps: 1. Click in front of the first subsection heading in the first section. 2. Navigate to the Insert tab, click on Quick Parts, and select Field. 3. Scroll down and click on TC. 4. Type the name of the subsection and check 'TC entry in doc with multiple tables'. 5. Check 'Outline level' and type '1' to format the entry with the TOC one style. 6. Click OK. -
Understanding the Field Code
Next, we will reveal the field code: 1. Go to the Home tab and show paragraph marks to see the field code. 2. You will notice the 'f' switch, which allows for multiple tables of contents by assigning a type identifier to the entry. 3. Click after the 'f' and type a space followed by 'x' as the identifier. -
Marking Additional Subsection Headings
To mark the other subsection headings: - Select the field code and copy it. - Delete the text inside the quotation marks and type the new subsection name. - After completing one section, move to the next, changing the text and identifier accordingly (e.g., 'y' for the second section). Repeat this for all subsections, ensuring they are labeled 'x', 'y', or 'z' based on their respective sections. -
Adding the Table of Contents
Once all subsections are labeled, we can add the table of contents: 1. Click the line below the first section heading. 2. Go to the References tab, click on Table of Contents, and select Custom Table of Contents. 3. Click Options, uncheck 'Styles' and 'Outline levels', and check 'Table entry fields'. 4. Click OK twice to add the TOC field code. -
Updating the Table of Contents
If no entries are found in the table of contents, follow these steps: 1. Press Alt and F9 to show the field code. 2. Ensure the 'f' switch has a type identifier. If not, Word defaults to type 'C'. 3. Right-click the code and update the field. 4. Press Alt and F9 again to view the updated table of contents, which should now display only the headings with type 'x' entries. -
Finalizing the Document
To finalize, copy the TOC field code to the other sections, changing the 'f' switch to 'y' and 'z' as needed. Additionally, add a high-level table of contents at the beginning of the document: 1. Click Table of Contents and select Custom Table of Contents. 2. Choose only one level and click OK. This will display only Heading 1 style text. -
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can effectively customize an automatic table of contents in Microsoft Word to display the desired text, enhancing the document's navigability and usability.
FAQ :
