Simply copy your TOC field and paste it into another document, then press Ctrl-A, Ctrl-Shift-F9 to convert the field to text.

My first reaction was: Oops! I don't have a TOC field, or if I do, I don't know where it is. All I did was just apply the appropriate heading style to each heading after I typed it, and the document map got built. Then I decided to consult Help and found out that all I have to do is click the Table of Contents button. Then I was able to simply cut and paste the table of contents that it built for me into the document where I need to cite it. So thanks.

P.S. I still don't see an actual Table of Contents 'field', though.

The Table of Contents field is what Word inserted and you cut & pasted. If you don't 'unlink' the field in the document you pasted it to, as per my previous post, you'll lose its contents when anything in the destination document causes the field to update (eg printing).
