Default Table of Contents



When you perform a mail merge to a new document, and the main document
contains a table of contents or a table of figures, you receive the following
error message, instead of page numbers, when you update the table:
ERROR! Bookmark not defined
Indexes and tables of authorities are not affected by this problem.

This does not happen when you perform the mail merge directly to the
printer. To work around this problem, use any of the following methods.
Method 1
Unlink the table of contents before merging to a new document. This converts
the TOC field to actual text, and the table of contents can no longer be
updated. If you want to update the table of contents, you must reinsert it.

Follow these steps to unlink the table of contents:
1. Place the insertion point within the table of contents.
2. Press CTRL+SHIFT+F9 (Windows), or the COMMAND key+SHIFT+F9 (Macintosh).
Method 2
Insert the table of contents after merging to the new document.
Method 3
Merge directly to the printer, instead of merging to a new document.
