Yeah thanks Herb my plan was to write a macro using the TOC and yes cross
referencing was how I was previously doing it and it was very time consuming.

You could manually create your TOC entries using cross-references to
headings. Depending on the length of your document, this could be laborious.
But, it does give you clickable links. If you're industrious and diligent,
you might even be able to write a macro to do the work of creating the
cross-references... but it might be worth doing only if this is something
you need to do again and again.

Why am I doing it?
I have paragraphs of data with titles. I need it in a table because I
need
to manually enter data in other columns of the table and I wanted the
table
to be the first page and people can click on the titles in the table to go
to
the paragraphs below. If you can think of a better way to do it I'm happy
to
try.

Whilst Graham and Herb gave you perfect technical adice, I am puzzled
why you want to do this.... Is it a formatting issue you cannot
perform otherwise, or maybe that you assume cannot be done otherwise?
'Herb Tyson [MVP Wrote:

updated.
So, make sure
it's in final form before doing this... or, be prepared to do it
again
when
you want to update the ToC (i.e., reinsert the toc field, convert to
text,
then convert text to table).

Select the TOC (a field) and press CTRL+Shift+F9 to convert the
field
to
text. Then while the text remains selected Table convert text to
table.

Is there any way for me to change a table of contents so that each
entry in the TOC goes into a different cell in a table?
Currently the best I can do is get the whole TOC to appear in one
cell or otherwise manually paste the TOC titles into the cells.-
