Default frustrated with word index

You can change the character and paragraph formatting of index entries
by modifying the index styles; that way, modifications will be
preserved as you update the index.

Index page numbers don't match the document page number or the Table

of
Contents numbers. The index is increasing the page number by one ,

so the
information is on Page 23, TOC number is 23 but the Index is Page

24. ,I've
selected the show/hide button, pressed F9, all section breaks are

correct and
still nothing happens. When you press F9, the formatting disappears,

which is
normal the trouble shooting guide states that this will happen. When

the
default format is applied it spreads the information over another

page. Is
this the reason why the numbers or out of sync and how can a person

fix this
problem? I've used the format and template in question for 3 years

(used for
a series of manuals). We expanded the information and are now having

a
problem
