Thanks for the work around. Does it seem strange to anyone else that
marking text for a TOC ends up deleting it from the document???

Hi BK,
Instead of using the quick parts tool, I recommend you use the Index tool
and then insert and Index instead of a TOC. We'll call this modified TOC
and
IndexTOC okay?
1. Highlight the text you want to appear in your IndexTOC.
2. On the ribbon choose the References Tab.
3. Eyeball three boxes to the right till you see the Index box.
4. From the Index box click on Mark Entry.
5. Now in the popup you can add what ever text you want to appear in your
IndexTOC and it won't replace your selection with what you are adding.
6. When you're done adding all your entries, you just get yourself to a
place in the document where you want the IndexTOC to appear and click on
the
Insert Index button.
7. When the Insert Index dialog box pops up you'll see many options.
Change the columns to 1 and click on right align page numbers. That
should
get your your speed modified version of a TOC!

Using Office 2007 and once again running into an issue marking text to be
included in a Table of Contents. I want to manually mark pieces of text
within my document to be included in the table of contents. These pieces
of
text are not titles or specific heading, so I want to manually mark them
instead of creating my TOC from styles.
Here are my steps:
Select the text
Click Insert \ TExt \ Quick Parts \ Field \ TC
In the Text entry box I type what I want to actually appear in the Table
of
Contents
Then I click OK
When I click OK to enter the field marker, it replaces the selected text.
How can I select the text to mark for inclusion in the Table of Contents
without having the field marker replace that selected text?
