A collection of TableOfFigures objects that represent the tables of figures in a document.

Using the TablesOfFigures Collection

Use the TablesOfFigures property to return the TablesOfFigures collection. The following example applies the Classic format to all tables of figures in the active document.

ActiveDocument.TablesOfFigures.Format = wdTOFClassic
		

Use the Add method to add a table of figures to a document. A table of figures lists figure captions in the order in which they appear in the document. The following example replaces the selection in the active document with a table of figures that includes caption labels and page numbers.

ActiveDocument.TablesOfFigures.Add Range:=Selection.Range, _
    IncludeLabel:=True, IncludePageNumbers:=True
		

Use TablesOfFigures(index), where index is the index number, to return a single TableOfFigures object. The index number represents the position of the table of figures in the document. The following example updates the page numbers of the items in the first table of figures in the active document.

ActiveDocument.TablesOfFigures(1).UpdatePageNumbers
