How-To: Creating a Table Of Contents in OpenOffice Writer

This video I made for those who are (or thinking about) writing a book in OpenOffice Writer. It’s also for those who have done the same thing in Microsoft Word but don’t exactly know how to perform the same function in OO. With this video, now you know.

Which Of These Traits Applies To YOUR Computing Life?...

    Good explanation – Thanks … however, the TOC and Index are the easy parts and it makes sense in OO (although who would expect to “Insert an Entry” even when “editing” an entry – doh).

    I have written in Word easily for years, but I can’t figure out 1 simple thing in OO. 1) How to make page numbers disappear on Chapter pages and intro pages, then become visible and proceed sequentially on new pages again. Am I brain dead or is this thing just really cumbersome in it’s page number implementation. I think it revolves around some esoteric styles usage, but I’ve lost too much sweat over trying to figure this out already. HELP!
