"Sometimes" isn't really reliable, is it? g I don't have enough experience
to be dogmatic about this, but my recollection is that it's never happened
for me, and I don't usually "bother" the automatic tab stop. But I certainly
won't question your experience, which is probably broader than mine.

In my experience, Word sometimes does this (unless of course you have
explicitly modified the tab stops). It could be a version issue, I guess.

You'd think that would work, but IME Word never moves the tab stop even
if
you have changed the margins.

But note that it might be easier than modifying tab stops. First try
to update the TOC: Either right-click it and choose "Update field" or
place the cursor inside it and press F9. Make sure that you select to
update the entire table, if prompted.

What exactly is the problem? If the page numbers don't align
properly,
you can drag the tab stop to the desired location. It should be
sufficient to do this once for each level (because the TOC styles
are
set to update automatically, by default).
