Autotext TOC

[Tel]

Hi everyone,

I've inherited a number of templates which contain a Table of Contents built
within an autotext entry.
This works OK, the user just types the autotext, hits F3 and the TOC
magically appears.
However, has anyone created a TOC with code instead of autotext?

Any help gratefully received.

Hi,

Are you looking for something as simple as the following:

ActiveDocument.Fields.Add _
Range:=Selection.Range, _
Type:=wdFieldTOC, _
Text:="", _
Preserveformatting:=True

If you want to insert any field switches, then add that to the Text parameter.

HTH,
Dave

Just curious. What's wrong with Insert => Indexes & Tables => Table of
Contents?
