Glad I could help.

I created a table of contents. I updated it several times and

the
entries
and corresponding page numbers were correct, however, when I

sent
the
document to my boss and he updated the Table of Contents, all

the
page
numbers for all the entries showed up as "1." I then sent the

document to a
coworker. When she updated it, the page numbers generated

correctly, but on
my boss's computer, the page numbers for all the entries were

still
showing
up as "1" instead of the actual page number. He then forwarded

his
copy to a
colleague and when this person updated it, the page numbers now

all
showed up
as "2." He sent the document back to me, but the page numbers

updated
correctly on my computer. Does anyone know what's causing the

numbers to
show correctly on one person's computer but incorrectly on

someone
else's?
He then opened the document several days later and the page

numbers
updated
correctly. I am totally befuddled. We finally had to send it

to
the client
as a PDF file instead of a Word document because we couldn't

trust
it. We
are all using Word 2003 and Windows XP. Thanks very much.
