Hi Tony,
I understood the objective from your first post but, as I replied, the 'plain jane' format is about the most you'll get from a Word TOC. Your 'something a little more elaborate' would require considerably more work to implement, especially if you want a conventional numbering layout in the body of the document. Ultimately, your custom Table of Contents would probably have to be built up from a combination of three cross-reference fields per heading - a cross-reference to the heading text, followed by a tab, then a cross-reference to the heading number, a separator character (eg period) then the cross-reference to the heading page number. You'd probably also want to format the different heading level cross-references in different Styles, just like those of a Word TOC. If there's a lot of this to be done, you'd probably want to automate the process via a macro.
