Mac Forum / Applications / Word / March 2006Updating TOC loses the magic
What is the logic behind the behavior of Table of Contents in Word 2004: First, when i create the TOC based on the Styles of the document it works ok and hyperlinks me to the chapter, that I click. BUT After I update the TOC, this behavior is lost, and I cannot return it. TOC just don't let me enter the correct chapter swiftly by clicking it on TOC. Hello - Take a look at the Insert...Index & Tables dialog box to see if you may have inadvertently removed the Hyperlink check. If so & you then updated replacing the original, that would be one possible explanation. You should be able to restore the Hyperlinked version by repeating the procedure *with* the Hyperlink option active. If that isn't the case, what more can you share about other changes in or aspects of the doc. Simply updating the TOC shouldn't break the links. Regards |:>) Hi Antti: In Mac Word, you have to click the Page Number. Mac Word does not support hyperlinks in the TOC like windows Word can. If you get a document where the TOC was generated by Windows Word, the hyperlinks will be in it and will work. If the TOC is re-generated on the Mac, the hyperlinks will be removed because Mac Word can't generate them. When you regenerate a TOC, the entire text within it is replaced.
