Mac Forum / Applications / Word / June 2006Automatic heading cross referencing, anyone?
Hi - I'm using Word:mac 11.2 on Mac OS X 10.4.6, and I have a document with a number of section headings. I'm using Insert -> Index and Tables -> Table of Contents to generate a table of contents at the beginning of my document, containing each section heading. Is there a built-in feature to automate making each Table of Contents entry a cross-reference (hyperlink) to the appropriate heading? I can do this manually, but it takes a while. If there isn't a built-in feature to do this, would it be possible using a macro? Thanks in advance, Mac Word Fan Hello Fan - My guess is that you have tried clicking the topics, but *not* the page numbers themselves (hint, hint). You might also get an even bigger boost if you go to View>Navigation Pane... You won't have to keep going back to the TOC to jump to any other area of the doc - assuming you are formatting your topics by way of Styles.

It's taken me a few days to be able to give this a go, but that's just what I wanted to do. Thanks! > You might also get an even bigger boost if you go to View>Navigation Pane... I'm not kidding; I got butterflies in my stomach. Ah, such a geek. Enjoy!... & thanks for posting back .

Double-click the page number :-) Due to a design bug, Mac Word does not have the PC Word feature that turns the entire entry into a hyperlink, but the page number still contains a link to the heading bookmark.
