Your screenshot shows the insertion point over the last '8', not on the paragraph break. Furthermore, the Table of Contents display only reflects how you have Word configured (see under File|Options|Advanced>Show document content>Field shading), not that the entire Table of Contents is selected.

I'm sorry but I'm not getting you. I have no idea what an insertion point and as far as I can see there is nothing above the 8.

Insertion point = where something goes when you start typing. Sometimes mistakenly called the cursor.

You need to select the paragraph mark, by itself.

The paragraph break isn't 'clickable' for me if you know what I mean?
