The problem is that 2 chapters are showing in the TOC as starting on page 1 of the Heading 2 from the PREVIOUS chapter, even though the page footer prints the appropriate page no. Each subdoc is a chapter where the first page is formatted to start on page 1 and to use the "include chapter no." option with Heading 2 style selected (I know, it's a weird pagination system). The document is quite large and it's broken into sub documents and the Master doc contains the TOC. (Heading styles are named "Heading 1," "Heading 2," etc.) If you apply these as you are creating your document-or if you go back and apply the styles later-then creating the TOC is a snap, as described above. This means that your document must use heading styles throughout it. Note, again, that this process creates a TOC based on heading levels within your document.
By default, Word's ToC looks for paragraphs with style names Heading 1, Heading 2 and Heading 3.
By that, I do not mean that you apply formatting such as 'bold' to them - you actually have to apply a named style. The easiest way to create a TOC is to use heading levels, as defined by the Word styles. Word's Table of Contents (ToC) feature lists paragraphs that have specific Paragraph Styles applied to them. If you are writing a long document or a book, you may want to create a Table of Contents (TOC) for your document.
