ToC: in Word 2007
Siuan 18.07.2006 17:52:02
I have already created the Table of Contents and added appropriate entries.
Now however, I find I need more than the default 3 levels.

I know that this can be set when the table is created, but have not been
able to find anything about editing this setting later. Can this be done or
do I need to delete the whole thing and start over? If I do need to restart
I'd much rather do it now, before the whole document gets totally
overwhelming.

Thank you for your consideration and help.

Well the ToC creation is automatic, so deleting and recreating a new ToC
with more levels should be easy just a few minutes work - though you may
need to edit the lower level ToC styles if they don't fit your scheme. Once
the ToC styles are correctly set up, you can create a macro to automatically
insert the ToC ready formatted with the correct number of levels. Renewing
the ToC will only take a second or two then.

I would imagine you can still edit the TOC switch to add another level.
Alt+F9 to display the field code. Where you see 1-3, change it to 1-4. For
more, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/TOCSwitches.htm
