TOC Generated from Styles - Want to Display TOC in Dual Column

[Kathleen]

I have generated a Table of Contents based on Styles
within my document. However, I want the Table of Contents
to display in a dual column. I can get the TOC in a dual
column, but the page numbers don't display.

Any ideas on how to display the page numbers as well as
display the TOC in dual columns?

Kathleen,

Make sure that when you generate your TOC that it is based
upon a template. Select this option from the Formats
dropdown. After generating into the columns where you may
or may not be using section breaks, you can modify the
paragraph formating for the TOC levels you are using
(e.g., TOC 1, TOC 2, TOC 3). Be sure to set your dot
leader as a right tab.

Is this still a problem if you create the columns before generating the TOC?
If so, you may have to edit the tab stops manually in the TOC entry styles.
