Hi Jamal,



Your TOC is inside a content control, which implies you've created via one of the built-in options from the TOC Gallery on the References|Table of Contents. These do cause problems sometimes, especially if the TOC has many entries. Then, it might take a while to evaluate. You'll get better results if you create the TOC via References|Table of Contents|Insert Table of Contents or via Insert|Quick Parts|Field>TOC.

Many thanks guys for the reply.

The answer you have supplied is certainly logic. But why the Word gets slow as we hover over the TOC without asking to update the content?

For example, in the attached docx file, if you just open the file and go through the pages passing the page of table of content then the word gets slow! And really slow to the degree that we can’t proceed going through the rest of the pages of the file!

why doesn't do the same regarding the list of figures, tables or caption?

What might be the explanation for this behavior?

Best

Jamal
