I'm looking for help in creating tables of contents for ebooks converted from MS Word documents.

I've tried applying the 'Heading 3' style and using Word's facility to create a table of contents and saving the resulting document as first an rtf file then an html file (since Calibre doesn't seem to accept doc files as input). However, I have not been able in Calibre to create a working TOC from either the rtf or the html files.

Can you please direct me to step-by-step guidance on how to do this, preferably using the Calibre GUI?

If it's necessary for me to use the Calibre Command-Line interface, can you suggest where I should go for beginners' instructions as to how I should use it?
