Default Multiple Tables of Contents problem

Hi Cheryl:

I do not see why you need TWO tables of contents.

You can use both Styles AND TC fields in the same table of contents :-)

Cheers

I have two tables of contents for the same document and want it to look like
one Table of Contents. Reason? For most of the document - the headings work
out great (Style 1 and Style 2, for example) but the last few paragraphs,
although they use the same styles - style 2 has no real formal heading, just
need the paragraph numbers that go along with Style 2.

Example first part of the document

Style 1 (numbered) - Heading 1
Style 2 (numbered) - Heading 2
Style 3 (non-numbered) - Paragraph (text)

Example second part of the document

Style 1 (numbered) - Heading 1
Style 2 (numbered) - immediately leading into text, no heading.

So, I've bookmarked the first part of the document and get my table of
contents by using {TOC \ B BOOKMARK1 \ T "Style 1, 1, Style 2, 2"}

Then I've bookmarked the last part of the document and get my table of
contents by using {TOC \B BOOKMARK2 \T "Style 1, 1"}

When the fields show, I've got them together {TOC \ B BOOKMARK1 \ T "Style
1, 1, Style 2, 2"}{TOC \B BOOKMARK2 \T "Style 1, 1"} (no hard space in
between).

This works great. I don't want the table of contents to pick up the
numbered paragraphs in the last part of the document and it doesn't.
Problem? For some reason, when I update the TOC and extra hardspace is
placed in between the two TOC's screwing up the look of it.

Heading 1................................................. Page 2
Heading 2................................................. Page 3
Heading 1................................................. Page 4
Heading 2................................................. Page 5

Heading 1................................................. Page 6
Heading 1................................................. Page 7
Heading 1................................................. Page 8

See what I mean? Can anyone tell me how to make it so that it looks like
below without the extra hardspace being inserted?

Heading 1................................................. Page 2
Heading 2................................................. Page 3
Heading 1................................................. Page 4
Heading 2................................................. Page 5
Heading 1................................................. Page 6
Heading 1................................................. Page 7
Heading 1................................................. Page 8
