Having TOC update for page

[Doug Boufford]

Running Office 97 on WIN 98SE

I have a page at beginning with a TOC, which I know how to update.
Each line in the TOC looks for the style "HEADING1"

I have a page (#25)where I do NOT want to show any text, whether in "HEADING 1" or
other style.

I inserted the Title that I wanted to show up in the TOC, on page 25 & because I
don't want it to show on this page, I used "hidden text". When I redid the TOC.
nothing showed up for page 25.

I thought that this would be the "simple" way of accomplishing what I wanted.........

Any hints would be welcomed!

TIA

Instead of using hidden text, insert a TC field and check the box (if any)
in the TOC Options dialog that tells Word to use Table Entry Fields as well
as styles.

THANKS very much. That worked perfectly. I didn't know about TC fields - now I do,
thanks to you.

I almost never use them, but they're very handy when you want a TOC entry
for which you don't have a corresponding heading (or if you want the entry
to differ from the actual heading).
