MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / July 2006Sorting a Table of Contents
I was able to sort a Table of Contents alphabetically rather than in page number order once before (might have been an earlier version of Word), but now Word says it can't do that. Is there a way to do this? Or, is there an easy way to create hyperlinks to all entries in an Index? I'm using Word 2003 in XP. thanks, dave green If you want something alphabetically, an index is what you want, but no, index entries are not hyperlinked (though many users have requested this). You can sort a TOC if you unlink the field first, but then its entries won't be hyperlinked, either.  SignatureSuzanne S.

The list of cross-references can then be sorted alphabetically. SignatureStefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP > Wish I could remember how I did it before.
