Default Table of contents entry

Thank you Suzanne. I did the tutorial on TOCs for extra help. I carefully
followed the instructions, everything worked fine until I hit F9 to update
the field after I put in the b switch. Nothing happened when I hit F9--and I
didn't get my second TOC. I am growing weary and trying to figure this out
is exhausting.

The TOC field can accept bookmarks regardless of whether it is based on
headings or on TC fields. You just bookmark the text you want included in
the TOC and add the \b switch referencing the bookmark.

I'm really confused now. The format I am using does not include headings

or
conventional outline numbering (no numbering). I used TOC entries because

it
was the only way I could find to mark text and generate a TOC. Is it
possible to do what I need to using the TOC entries? I don't see how I can
generate a partical TOC without headings. Appeciate any help.

Can anyone tell me how I can generate multiple tables of contents

using TC
entries?
I am developing a student guide and the TOC is divided into Lessons

and
topics. What I need to be able to do is have a separate table of

contents
for each topic--it will list outline sheets, diagram sheets, etc. I

know
how to apply the TC entries and have successfully generated one TOC,
however,
I don't know how to distinguish the different TOCs. The TC dialog box
allows
me to choose a table identifier and a level - but I don't know how to

use
them. I have been reading and scratching my head for hours. Time to

call
in
the experts. I appreciate any help from anyone. Thanks
