If you want to do that, select Cross-Reference in the options group. For example: if you selected the word "cow" within your document, it will appear as Cow in the Main Entry box above. If you want "cow" to appear as Cattle instead, type Cattle in the Main Entry box. You can also type a subentry. This might be "Longhorns." If you want something else to appear in the index, then type that into the Main Entry box. The text that you selected is the text that will appear in the index. Go to the References tab, then click Mark Entry in the Index group. Start out by selecting the word or phrase that you want to index. If you ever need to add or delete sources, modify them, or go back and enter information for a placeholder, you can do this simply by managing your sources.

If you have not created any sources yet, you can do so by clicking the Add New Source button. Alternatively, you can click the Manage Sources button.If we had not already added these sources, we would only see an option to add a new source or to add a new placeholder. The first is a book by Paul Laurence Dunbar, and the second is a book by Jane Kramer. In the following example, you can see that we have already added two sources. You can choose to insert a source by clicking on it or just insert a placeholder.

For instance, if you used a quote from a magazine article, you would want to cite the article, author, and magazine after the quote. Suppress for Current Paragraph means you can select a paragraph and select this option to that the paragraph's lines are not numbered.
Restart Each Section means that line numbering will start over in each section. You must use headers for Microsoft Word to be able to do this. Restart on each page means that each page's first line will be numbered ‘1."
Microsoft Word will label the first line "1," the second line "2," and so on throughout the entire document. If you click the Line Numbers button, you will see this dropdown menu:Īs you can see, None is selected by default. You can also select:Ĭontinuous to display every line number within the document. To display line numbers, go to the Layout tab. Click on Line Numbers in the Page Setup group, as shown below.
This is especially helpful in technical papers to create reference points. You can display line numbers in all or part of a document, or at certain intervals such as every tenth line. You have to specify if you want Word to show line numbers and which ones to display. However, it does not show these line numbers. By default, Microsoft Word numbers every line in a document except for those in tables, footnotes, endnotes, text boxes, frames, as well as headers and footers.
