Default

The default formatting for an Index field includes leader dots if you check
the box for "Right align page numbers." If by "index" you mean "table of
contents," the default formatting for a TOC field also includes period
leaders. If you are creating either a TOC or an index by hand instead of
using Word's built-in features, you are making unnecessary work for
yourself. See the following:

I need the dots to go across the page until it gets to page number.
