Question
You want the table of contents in a long Word report to update automatically whenever the headings change. What should you do first?
Select your answer
Apply Word’s built-in heading styles to each heading.
Make each heading bold and increase its font size.
Insert a section break before each heading.
Type the table of contents manually, then use Update Field.
WHY IS THIS THE CORRECT ANSWER
Word builds an automatic table of contents from heading styles, so headings that are only formatted by hand, with bold or larger text, aren’t recognized. Once Heading 1, Heading 2 and so on are applied, the table of contents can be refreshed with one click whenever the headings change.
