Default TOC - Page numbers differ in continued on next page

For the TOC:
Is there anyway to create page numbers to be display in the TOC like this 1-2
when that topic extends to page 2.

For example:
If a topic started on page 4 and continued to page 7 the TOC page display would be 4-7.



If a topic started and finished on page 5, then the TOC page display would be 5

I have not heard of the TOC to be configured that way, nor do I see the sense in doing so (what purpose does it serve?). If you have one topic that extends from pages 1 through 3 followed by another topic starting on page 3, you could assume (bad word, I know) the previous topic extended to page 3.

Other posters may offer other opinions...

This is a customer request. I think they want them to have a visual cue that the topic exceeds 1 page.

There is nothing built into Word that will do this.
Once the TOC is generated, you could manually add the second part.

Tell the customer that such a feature could cost thousands of dollars and stop working when Word revises its program, if it could be done at all.

The fact the next item's page # is more than 1 page away is enough of a cue for most people...
