Default Creating a table of contents displaying multiple combined quotes from each section

Hello,

I am trying to create a Word Table of Contents which includes quotes from each section. I have several short sections which have some sentences in bold, and I would like to be able to see these sentences in the Table of Contents.

I have used the method in the first video below:
Video: Advanced tables of contents - Microsoft Support

I have given my Bold Text a style name, and assigned it to Level 4 in the TOC. This method works to an extent, but not consistently. I have three problems:
  1. The bold text is made up of several discontinuous sentences. I would like to have all the sentences displayed in the TOC somehow, but currently the TOC is only showing the first sentence per section, even if there are others bolded in that section.
  2. For some subheadings, the bold text does not show at all in the TOC, even though I have gone through and checked it's the correct style.
  3. Currently, it looks like that even if I got more than one sentence of the bolded text to show per section, each sentence would be on a different line in the TOC. I would like to have the individual sentences in one block, looking something like this: "This is the first bolded bit...this is the second bolded bit...this is the third bolded bit."

Thanks for any help!
