I think you're going to have to number the TC fields separately from the
actual headings. For this type of numbering even SEQ fields might work.

Suzanne...
Thank you for answering my post. I did gather the information you
provided
from the HELP files however what I am trying to do is insert the identical
sequence number from the Listnum field that makes up the original text of
the
TC's entry. My example was probably not clear enough to understand. I
shall
try again.
The original text to be included into the TC field has the Listnum field
as
part of it.
The example refined: "Listnum_space_space_Content Header" where Listnum
in
my earlier example was generated as the #3.
The example TC field appears as follows: "{ TC "1. Content Header" \f C
\1
"1" }" or roughly there abouts.
The resulting TOC entry does not produce the desired effect of "3.
Content
Header............................56". Rather it produces the look of "1.
Content Header............................56". It is close but not
exactly
what I am looking for.
I do hope that this refinement of my desired outcome and the actual
example
steps and their produced outcomes helps in getting a closer resolution to
my
desired finished look of my TOC. Again, I thank you for taking the time
to
reply and if you think you have a solution please let me know. Thanks.

I should like to insert an identical sequence number into the TC field
for
it's use in generating a TOC. The example follows: [3. Content
Header ]
where 3. is generated from a Listnum field and the total [3. Content
Header
] content is desired as an entry in the TOC as being displayed in the
following fashion: [3. Content
Header.............................56 ]
where 56 represents the page where [3. Content Header] is located.
Again
I
am looking to have the Listnum field generate the number as other
Listnum
fields are inserted or deleted and to have that information carry over
to
the
TC field for capture into the TOC when it is updated. I am not sure
that
this combining of fields is possible but if there is an alternative
method
for producing the same results I would be most appreciative. Thanks
in
advance for any assistance.
