The format you describe is the default for the TOC styles (in every
particular), but they do pick up any font formatting that has been applied
to directly to the associated headings, so be sure that any font formatting
is defined in the heading style. For more, see

I am working with some long documents. They are very carefully formatted

(I
spent hours on this) but I cannot get TOC to format as I want it to. The
TOC's vary from document to document, but no matter what TOC number,

options
or modifications I select I can't get them to change in a given document.

The
documents have headers at various levels (1 - 5), all of which I want in

the
TOC. This is what I want: Times New Roman, no bold, italics, caps, small
caps, just follow capitalization as it appears in the document. I want

dots
(...) from the title to the page number. Page numbers should be aligned on
the right and should be hyperlinked. Headers should indent slightly from

one
level to the next. Sounds simple but I have spent literally hours

inserting
TOC's over and over.
Here is an illustration of what I want (obviously it's not hyperlinked but
you will get the idea) on all documents:

Header One

.................................................. ...........................
.................1
Another Header One

.................................................. ...........................
.....2
Header

Two............................................... ..........................
...................2
This is the Header

Two............................................... ..........................
...3
Header Three

.................................................. ...........................
..........3
Header

Four.............................................. ..........................
..............4
Header

Five.............................................. ..........................
...........4
And Another Header

One............................................... ..........................
...5
