Default Trouble with creating TOC

If you're using TC fields, it shouldn't matter what the style is, and if the
TOC is based on styles, you don't need TC fields. My guess is that you don't
have "Table entry fields" checked in the Table of Contents Option dialog,
and you're getting an ordinary TOC based on styles/outline levels. If you
actually checked the box for "Table entry fields," you'd get everything
twice. You might want to read

Discovered my error. The missing item was formatted as Normal text
instead of Heading. Works OK now.

I am trying to create a table of contents for a short document I am
writing. I am doing so by marking certain headings using
"Alt-Shift-O", and then going to the start of the document and
creating the TOC there.
Seems to work fine, except for one entry. It concerns a page that I
have titled "Appendix 2" (There is no "Appendix 1" yet). The code
entered is {.TC."Appendix.2".\f.C.\1."1".}

The only code between this "Appendix 2" and the rest of the text is a
page break.

No matter how often I update the TOC at the beginning of the page,
this "Appendix 2" does not appear in the TOC listings. Not sure why
or how to fix this. I would like it to make it show up. Would
appreciate advice.
Thanks.
