Default Is there a way to have a phrase in the section heading only show up in the table of contents?

I have a report that I want to have the format of the section headings show up as "Section # [text][text][text]" in the table of contents but only as "[text][text][text]" in the actual section heading in the document.



Basically I just want the phrase "Section #" in the table TOC and not the body.

Thanks.

The formatting of each level in the TOC is controlled by a corresponding TOC style. For example, in the TOC, level 1 headings get their formatting from the TOC 1 style. This means that you can leave your heading unnumbered and apply the desired number format to the appropriate TOC style.
