Default Table of Contents (TOC)

I am editing a word document (Microsoft Word 2003) to which I am not the
original author.

The Table of Contents (TOC) is centering vertically on the page. This is
causing extra line spacing on the second page of the TOC. The text on the
second page of the TOC should take up half the page, but it is forced to fill
the entire page [top to bottom].

How do I turn off / unformat this?

thanks, Linda

Default Table of Contents (TOC)

On the Layout tab of the Page Setup dialog, make sure "Vertical alignment"
is set to Top, not Center or Justified (can't tell from your description
which is the problem).

Linda,
Click in the toc, go to File - Page setup - on the layout tab - next to
vertical alignment - it should read top of page and not center or justify.
