No, Word's TOC-generating engine does not see any text in the drawing layer,
which includes text boxes. If you can explain why you need a text box, we
may be able to suggest an acceptable substitute, such as a frame, table
cell, or paragraph border.

Can I type my heading into a textbox when I'm using toc? I tried but the
toc
does not recognise the heading.
