In Word 2016, you can create a folder tree to easily search and move between sections in the document quickly. If you use other versions of Word, please refer to the instructions below:

=> Create a folder tree in Word 2013
=> Create a folder tree in Word 2007
=> Create a folder tree in Word 2003

Note that creating a directory tree is different from creating an automatic table of contents in Word. If your document has many chapters and sections, creating an automatic table of contents will save you a lot of time instead of manually editing it. Word supports this feature, helping you complete it quickly without much effort.
