Question Table of Contents does not update, when document is opened on other computer

Hi guys,

I have the following problem. I am working for a university and am creating a template for study notes and reports, which i want to make available to the whole organisation.

In this document I have included a table of contents, which I have customised and also saved to the Table of Contents Gallery.



On my computer everything works fine. I can add content to my document and then update the TOC with the "Update Table of Contents" function.

When I send the document to a colleague and go through the same process on his/hers computer, updating the table of contents gives me the following message: "NO TABLE OF CONTENTS ENTRIES FOUND". And I have to apply the TOC levels to the different styles all over again (Right click on TOC; Select Edit Field ...; Under Field Properties select Table of Contents; in the box, select Options).

I would be very happy and grateful, if someone had an idea of how to fix this .

Thanks guys,

Jay

Default Update table of contents automatically

Hello.

Please follow the directions below to update your Table of Contents Automatically.

If you added or removed headings or other table of contents entries in your document, you can quickly update the table of contents.

1. On the References tab, in the Table of Contents group, click Update Table.

2. Click Update page numbers only or Update entire table.
