Do not try to produce a manually created table of contents. With latex you can get an automatically generated table fo contents using the tableofcontents command. For automatically numbered chapter, section, subsection... titles you can use chapter , section, subsection...:

Compile the following document twice:

documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{report}
usepackage[a4paper,bindingoffset=0.2in,%
            left=1in,right=1in,top=1in,bottom=1in,%
            footskip=.25in]{geometry}
usepackage{fancyhdr}
fancyfoot[R]{thepage}
pagestyle{fancy}
begin{document}

tableofcontents

chapter{summary}

This is my first document

chapter{chapter heading}

section{a section heading}

subsection{a subsection}

your text

end{document}

If this alignment/layout does not suit your needs, it can be of course customized.
