thank you Stefan - guess I'll have to work around it somehow - will try your
suggestions.

The page number would be the page number of the first page in that section,
as each section has its own header deliberately to ensure that text that
rolls over more than one page maintains the same heading.

There is no way to include text in headers (or footers) in a table of
contents. Even if it was possible, what page number should be assigned
to it, given the fact that a header is usually displayed on multiple
pages?

To solve this problem, you have two options:

1. Leave your headings in the header and then add TC fields to the
body of your document and build your TOC on those fields.

Or:

2. Move the headings into the main body of the document. If you want
the current heading to be displayed in the header, insert a STYLEREF
field in the header.

I need to use the text in the Headers in Word to generate my TOC -
so far the
automated system is not picking up the text in the Header and none
of the
commands to mark the text work within the Header. How do I get
around this,
as all our Word documents contain the headings within the Header!
thanks for
any help/suggestions!
