table of references? bookmarks?

[Cheryl]

I am working on a document that lists the qualifications of a construction
company with descriptions for each job. Each job description lists the types
of work done (concrete, pipe, bridgework, etc.) I have a table of contents,
but I want to insert a table with page numbers based on the types of work.
For example,

Bridgework
sunnyside job - page 17
prairie job - page 42

Concrete
sunnyside job - page 17
moser job - page 23

I want it to be able to update as new jobs are added . . .

Do I want too much or is there a way to do this? I am pretty familiar with
word and table of contents, but can't figure out how to do this.

Thanks for your help.

If your "job description" titles are formatted with one of Word's built-in
heading styles, they should appear in the TOC automatically. If you've used
a different style (consistently, and only for job description headings), you
can assign it an outline level, either in the style definition or in the TOC
Options dialog.

With the pages out of order, and categories with varying entries, what
you describe looks more like an index to me, than a table of contents.
If you manually mark each job (sunnyside, prairie, moser) with the
appropriate index entries as you go along, the Index field will generate
the table and update the page numbers and entries as appropriate.

Help should cover creating an index--Bridgework will be the Entry and
Sunnyside will be a subentry under Bridgework, and each job will likely
have as many index entries as apply.

Look for "Mark index entries for words or phrases" and "About creating
an index"
