If simply updating the Table of Contents (e.g. click in it and press F9) doesn't add your Heading 6 entries, that may be because it's had switches added to limit the number of headings. In that case, try deleting the existing Table of Contents and, in its place, creating a new one via Ctrl-F9 (to create a pair of field braces, thus {}) and typing TOC between the field braces, so you get:


{TOC}
then pressing F9 to update the field. All heading levels should now appear.

Question Still not working :(

Hi Macropod -

First I wanted to thank you for your help so far.

Unfortunately no luck though. It still only displays the Heading 2 items.

I attempted the above method a couple times, and I ensured that the Heading 2 & Heading 6 styles are definitely being used. (e.g. When moving the cursor to the Heading 6 text, I see that it highlights the Heading 6 style in the toolbar)

I am intrigued by the CTRL-F9 {TOC} mode though. Is possible to manually define:

HEADING2
heading6 ................................ page_number_of_heading2

HEADING2(next occurrence)
heading6(next occurrence) ................ page_number_of_(next)_heading2

--I'm not sure what that mode is called, but I'm hoping that mode will allow defining a TOC in the that particular way?

Thanks so much again for your help,
-cg
