Create and Customise Table of Contents

A Table of Contents, abbreviated as TOC, is a list that gives description of the topics with their page number.
A table of contents is important to give a roadmap to the document so that one can easily jump to the correct
section.

Creating Table of Contents
When you create a document, by default chapter and section headings are used for different heading levels.
These are what will appear in your table of contents. You can use more levels of headings, but the default setting
is to use only the first three levels in the table of contents.
To create a table of contents:
Step 1: Place the cursor where you want the table of contents to be inserted.
Step 2: Click on Insert  Table of Contents and Index Table of Contents, Index or Bibliography. The Table of
Contents, Index or Bibliography dialog box will open.

Step 3: Click the OK button. The result will be a typical table of contents with the entries generated as
hyperlinks.
