    I rarely ever comment on videos, but I had to say thank you, thank you, thank you! I have been struggling for years to create tables of contents automatically in Word and I would always give up feeling frustrated and end up doing it manually. You can never fully appreciate this feature until you have spent hours of time trying to do it by hand. I never knew the solution was a simple-easy to understand RUclips video away. Two thumbs way up!

    I officially declare this as the MOST HELPFUL VIDEO FOR ME THIS YEAR. I was working on my project but didn't know how to make the table of contents, I was doing it manually. It was such a hustle, but thanks to this video I now have my clean table of content.

    This was EASILY the best tutorial I have seen. Looked at two others that just skipped over the fact that you have to assign headers to chapters. Which is just bizarre since that's what feeds the info to the toc! Thank you so so much!!
