Automatic Tables of Contents and Authority
Presented by the CT Bar Institute
About the Program
Nearly everyone working in an office has some experience with Microsoft Word, but learning and mastering the program’s more advanced features and settings can markedly improve your productivity and greatly decrease the time it takes you to create and finalize documents.
During this four part series covering different elements of Word, Attorney Barron K. Henley will draw from his decades of experience in legal technology, sharing the vital skills needed to utilize the word processor to its fullest potential. He will teach how to optimize Word’s settings, take advantage of its keyboard shortcuts, eliminate document formatting difficulties, and more.
For each seminar, participants will also receive relevant portions of a written guide on Microsoft Word, developed by Attorney Henley’s firm. Join us for one or more of these seminars and develop the expertise of a Microsoft Word power user.
Part IV: Automatic Tables of Contents and Authority
This seminar will teach you helpful tips for creating tables of contents and tables of authority. It will cover how to generate tables of contents from the styles used in your document and how to control the formatting using table of contents’ styles. It will address how to establish your categories of citations in tables of authorities and how to “tag” a citation, so it’s pulled into a table of authorities.
You Will Learn
• How to generate tables of contents from the styles used in your document.
• How to update a table of contents so it reflects any subsequent editing.
• To establish your categories of citations (cases, statutes, other authorities, etc.) for tables of authorities.
