Default TOC And my Boss

Hi All

My boss is driving me nuts...not unusual I know.

Anyway, what he wants to do is create policy documents, all as seperate documents and then have me merge them into 1 document and add a TOC. So far nothing too hard. And I have some template somewhere that merges all the documents together automatically.

However he wants the TOC to look like

Heading 1 p1
Heading 2 p1
Heading 2 p2
Heading 2 p3

Heading1 p4

Where Heading 1 is a grouping for example OH & S, and heading 2 is the policy title.

So far nothing hard.

However he wants Heading 1 on each seperate document so when I collate them I put teh right policy in the right grouping according to his logic. And then to make life really interesting, if he decides he doesn't like the grouping assigned he wants to change heading 1 and have the document automatically move within the main document to the correct place and update the TOC automatically.

Listening to him I think this can be done in Word. I know I could do it in Access without breaking a sweat, but seems easier to construct a word macro to achieve what he wants rather than write something and teach him how to use it.

Anyone?
