Can I insert another table of contents but just for appendices?

[Craig Ward]

Is it possible to insert a second TOC within a document but just for
appendices? Whenever I try I always get the whole TOC not just the sections
after the insertion point.

Hi Craig,

I am working in 2000 and yes you can insert a 2nd TOC. Menu path
Insert/Insert/Index and Tables/Table of contents tab/Options/Select or
deselect options/Word will prompt you and ask if you want to replace TOC. Say
no. It will insert 2nd Toc.

Yep, that works, but I want the 2nd TOC to only display the headers from the
insertion point onwards. To summarise: I've a TOC at the start of the
document, and now I want a 2nd TOC on the first page of the appendix, which
lists the appendix headers.

If you have used a different style for the appendix headings, you can create
a TOC based on just that style. If the style used for headings is the same
as that used in the rest of the document, then you'll need to create a TOC
based on a bookmark. See the section "A partial table of contents" in
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/TOCSwitches.htm

You have two basic approaches you to choose from

1. Bookmark the entire appendix (select, then Insert/Bookmark), then build the
TOC on the bookmark (see the Word Help for TOC field for information on the
available switches that can set this)

2. Format the headings of the Appendix using a different set of styles, then
set up the second TOC to use these styles. This can be set in the "Options"
section of Insert/References/Indexes and Tables/Table of Contents
