How to make headings and titles in a word 2007 document? I do not know about you, but I like documents with clear headings or subheadings that label sections in a document. It makes it easier to see sections that interest you and it defines the area you are reading. In Microsoft word 2007 it has been made so easy to format text into headings and titles throughout your document. Here’s how to make a normal word in a document into a heading or title: Open your Microsoft  Word 2007 document. Make sure you are on the  Home tab or ribbon. Select the text  that you wish to make into a heading by making it blue. Under the heading  styles  (see arrow in screenshot) you will see what style your text is. My text that I have selected is  Normal , however I want to make it a heading.
