I am trying to create a form that cross-references form fields to populate
data later in the document. It works fine until I insert a table of contents
and lock the form. Before the table of contents, the fields would update on
exit, but now they don't do anything. I've searched many websites trying to
figure out why.

I can certainly confirm the behavior you are describing. I suspect that you
will need a macro to take care of the updating. A macro is needed to update
the table of contents, anyway, since protected documents won't let you
update TOCs. For further assistance, ask in a programming newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.word.vba.general.
