I am not a Word wizard when it comes to tables of contents. I am supporting
someone using Word 2000. He wants to create a table of contents where the
first line of each page forms the entries in the table. Is this possible?
How do you do it?

Thanks!!

The simplest method is to mark the first line with a Heading Style.

See: http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/styles/ApplyAStyle.html
Then you can use the features in:

table of contents.

Dawn's suggestion is the easiest solution, but be aware that the line that is
at the top of a page today may not be at the top of the page tomorrow.
Adding or deleting lines will change page breaks, as will switching to a
different printer or even creating PDFs. Using manual page breaks or
formatting the headings as Page Break Before can lead to blank pages in the
document.
