Default Excessively Confused: Why are TOC Considered "Headers?"

I have gone to Ms. Kelly's page multiple times, but when I follow her
instructions about Selecting All text, then applying the Heading 1 (or 2, or
3) Style to it, all that happens is that the Font changes. No Table of
Contents appears.

In addition, I repeatedly get the BOLD error message *Error! No table of
contents entries found.*

This shouldn't be as difficult as it is, but thank you for taking the time
to respond.

(Thank you to Doug Robbins.)

I spent the better part of a splendid Memorial Day trying to create

my first
"automatic" TOC. I copied a "hand-made" TOC to a New Document, then

went
through the InsertTables and Fields [this is WORD 2000](rest of

the stuff).

Each time I did this and tried to apply the template to my Pasted

selection,
an error message in BOLD showed up saying basically "There is No

Text to
Apply Formatting To" (or something to that affect.

If you could tell me what I did wrong, I would very much appreciate

it. And
again, I'm asking for the titles of any hard-copy books or websites

where
mastering the more complex and technical aspects of WORD are taught.

I
Firefox-ed a page that literally calls itself "Complex Aspects of

WORD," but
for my purposes, I would appreciate a book or interactive CD.

Thank you.
