Suzanne: I have been trying to figure this out for far too long. Thanks for
your post. Extremely helpful. Does the same problem occur in Word 2007?

This is a known problem when recipients of an attachment open it in Reading
Layout view. There is nothing you can do from your end except make
suggestions:
1. You can suggest that recipients disable Reading Layout view (Tools |
Options | General). Some of them may thank you for information on how to do
this.
2. You can suggest that recipients save the attachment to the hard drive
before opening instead of opening it directly (Reading Layout view is
triggered only by opening an attachment directly).
3. You can suggest that recipients switch from Reading Layout view to Print
Layout view and update the TOC (F9).

The table of contents in my word document keeps repeating the page
numbers.
When I update the table the page numbers get corrected and saving it and
opening it again doesn't cause an issue; the page numbers remain '3', '5',
and '8'.
However when I attach the document in Outlook as an attachement all the
page
numbers say '3'. The hyperlinks still go to the correct page '3', '5' and
'8'. I've looked at the styles and they are good and I've deleted the TOC
and
made a new one. Same issue and only when I attach it to an e-mail in
Outlook.
I'm using Word 2003.
Please advise. Thanks.
