No, there is no way to get the TOC to combine two headings from the body of
the document and present them as a single TOC entry. Notwithstanding the
niceness of the effect, using tables purely for layout is not good practice,
precisely for the reasons you have found. It makes it hard to process the
document content.

And there are nearly always better methods, anyway.

I am working with a document template (created by someone in my team) that
uses a table to format the headings throughout a proposal. The effect is
very nice - and I understand why it was done that way.

However the net result is the the Number portion of a heading and the
heading title are in two different cells. What happens when I create a
TOC
is that the Number appears (with no heading text beside it) and then on
the
next line the heading appears.

If I moved the number over - I would be fine but the way the document is
set
up makes that solution look funny.

Is there any way to get the TOC to read both cells of the table as being
part of the same heading and thus have them appear in the same line of the
TOC.

To be clear they are both set to the same level and style etc etc. They
just are in separate cells so they appear differently to Word.

Also - part of the "look" is to have a line separating the cells so
merging
them is is not an option.


Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.
