Simple Index
Bookmark your paragraphs, and use REF fields to create the links to them.

Simple Index
Unlike a Table of Contents, Index entries are not hyperlinks nor is there an
option in the Index & Tables feature to make them so... one primary reason being that an index item could very well be - and often is - located in several places within the doc, so which one gets linked to? Once you generate an index you can then convert each entry to a hyperlink. If you do you might also want to look into creating Bookmarks so you can hyperlink to them... Just keep in mind that if you regenerate the index it will remove your hyperlinks. IMHO, creating hyperlinks to navigate the doc is superfluous work - there are numerous navigation tools readily available in Word. Explore the Browse Object/Go To features & encourage others to learn to use it as well :-) -- HTH |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac wrote in message oups.com...

Simple Index
It sounds like what you really want is a table of contents (TOC) rather than
an index. You can create this with TC fields (similar to the way you created the index with XE fields), or you can build it using existing headings.
