Hi Sonu,

I know how to create index in miscrosoft word.
But what I want is this.


I want to create a index and then have ability to jump to a specific
topic when I click on this index. How can I create this. I know it is
possible because I have seen it in one of the document. And yes I dont
have that document anyomre.


This is only possible by using a very complex macro to "walk through"
each index page number, search the term on that page, then create a
hyperlink to it, stored "behind" the number. And how the macro is
programmed depends on what type of index this is, and what types of
terms might be indexed. Not at all simple or straightforward...

I found the solution elsewhere. I was trying to create index. If I do
table of content then it should provide the same functionality with
hyperlinks. I just have to used heading 1 or 2 for the topics I want
to add in my index or TOC.
Thanks for the help. I got it now.
