Table of content (figures, tables)
Hi,
I'm trying to create a list of my tables on Word. I'm able to create the list automatically with captions, but the description of the table that is on line below the "Table 1" doesn't appear on the list of table. Is there a way to include the description of the Table in the list (not manually)? The exemple below shows what I would like to have, the (=) means break page. Thanks for your help. ================================================ List of table Table 1 Money vs Time............1 ================================================= Text, blablabla...... ........................... Table 1 Money vs Time -------------- | | | | -------------- Text, blabla................ ............................ ================================================ |

Table of content (figures, tables)
If you have used Insert | Caption to insert your table titles, this will be
handled automatically when you create a list of tables. I'm guessing you've done this manually since you have separate paragraphs for the table numbers and table titles. One approach to this is to include the table title style in the TOC instead of the table number style. Then format the TOC style with Table # autonumbering. -- Suzanne S.

Table of content (figures, tables)
Hi Chad,
Thank you very much, you have made my day. Your tip works perfectly. Yesterday I resigned to modify manually my "list of table" at the last step, but with your help my TOC, "list of figure" and "list of tables" will be handle automatically by Word. Thanks again.
