Default Create a TOC with paragraph numbers below the TOC entry?

Sorry for being obtuse, I'm new to TOCs in Word.

I have two main styles, one called 'First header' which is applied to my
headers, and one called 'Heading 2,Paragraph numbering (1.1)' (Word insisted
on putting the 'Heading 2' at the start of the style name, I don't know why)

In Outline view, my 'First header'-styled headings are Level 4. My
paragraphs are Level 2. I didn't set either of these options.

On that basis, how do I create a TOC as I described in my top post?
Obviously I don't want the content of the paragraphs repeated in the TOC,
just their paragraph numbers.

Your help is very much appreciated

You do know you can assign an outline level to any style in the TOC Options
dialog? For this to work, of course, you have to have used a particular
style for those numbered paragraphs and not just applied outline numbering
to Normal or something.

Thanks for the reply.

The Outline Levels checkbox in the Table of Contents options dialogue is
greyed out. I have defined my own styles for the headers, that seems to
be
part of the issue since the checkbox only greys when I change from the
default selections, all of which have the standard 'Heading 1/2/3' text.

If the numbered paragraphs have an outline level of 1-3, they will be
included automatically. See

Hello all

I am trying to create a TOC which has headings referring to the
paragraph
numbers of the section below. Here's an example:

Header 1

1.1 Paragraph Text

1.2 Paragraph Text

1.3 Paragraph Text

Header 2

1.4 Paragraph Text

1.5 Paragraph Text

etc etc

I'd like the TOC to display as follows:

Header 1.....Paragraph 1.1.....Page 1
Header 2.....Paragraph 1.4.....Page 2
etc etc

Is this possible? I've been looking at the field codes for TOCs but I'm
not
sure this is possible.

I'm using Word 2003.

Any help would be much appreciated
