Default Customized Layout for TOC

I'm creating a TOC that needs to have both the Heading 2 and Heading 3 styles
on the same line. Is this possible?
Example -
The body reads like this

Article I
Officers and Elections (these two lines are style = Heading 1)

Presiding Officer (this line is style = Heading 3)

Rule 1.01 The presiding officer shall be the president, blah, blah, blah
(the words "Rule 1.01 are style = Heading 2)

I need the TOC to read

Article I
Officers and Elections

Rule 1.01 Presiding Officer ...........................3
Rule 1.02 President Pro Tempore..................4

Is it possible to have both Heading 2 and 3 on the same line?
I've gone to the point, by manually altering the field code, that I have
Heading 1 correct and Heading 2 correct, but Heading 3 is on the line above
Heading 2 (because it appears in the text before Heading 2).

Maybe I need to use TC instead of TOC for Heading 3. If so, please explain.

Thanks for your help.

Wow. What a great article. Thanks.
I'm pretty sure the last topic is going to help me tremendously, but I'll
post again if I can't figure it out.

Default Customized Layout for TOC

Well, I guess I don't understand completely.
I create three new styles - Section Title, Rule Title and Actual Rule

Article I
Officers and Elections (assigned Section Title)

Presiding Officer (assigned Rule Title)

Rule 1.01 (assigned Actual Rule)


I places the following TC fields in the body.
ARTICLE I
OFFICERS AND ELECTIONS {TC "ARTICLE I" \n} {TC "OFFICERS ADN ELECTIONS" \n}

PRESIDING OFFICER OF THE SENATE {TC "PRESIDING OFFICER OF THE SENATE"}

Rule 1.01. {TC "Rule 1.01" \n}

and I created
{STYLEREF " Section Title"}

{STYLEREF "Actual Rule"} {STYLEREF "Rule Title"\1}

at the top of my page.
I guess I don't understand how to get this to act as a TOC, (or to get these
STYLEREF into the TOC field) or have a leader and page numbers after the Rule
Title.
I also need to reference the "Rule Title" that is directly above the "Actual
Rule" and not the one below it. I was trying to do this with the switch \1,
but it doesn't seem to work.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

In order to get your TOC to pick up TC fields, you must check the box for
"Table entry fields" in the TOC Options dialog. You'll probably also need to
clear the check boxes for "Styles" and "Outline levels," given that you're
using built-in Heading styles (which have TOC outline levels by default) for
your headings.

There's more to it than that.

The TC fields for "ARTICLE I" and "OFFICERS AND ELECTIONS" are fine, although
you might want to make them proper case instead of all caps. Also, unless you've
used an automatically numbered style for those paragraphs, you can omit the \n
switches because they aren't doing anything for you.

The TC fields for the rule number and section title should not be there, and the
StyleRef fields do not go at the top of the page. Instead, somewhere in the
paragraph following each rule number, insert a nested field with this content:

{TC "{StyleRef "Actual Rule"} {StyleRef "Section Title"}" }

Use Ctrl+F9 to create each matched pair of field markers, and be sure to place
the double quotes where I've shown them. While you're working on this, have the
nonprinting characters displayed by clicking the ¶ button, because TC fields are
automatically made hidden.

Repeat the same TC field (by copy/paste or by making the field into an AutoText
entry) in each rule paragraph. When you update fields (Ctrl+A, then F9), the
StyleRef fields will take as their values the text of the most recent occurrence
of the named styles -- even if there are more than one such occurrence on the
same page. You don't need any \l switches to make this work.

Another consideration: If the rule number is just the beginning of a larger
paragraph, make the Actual Rule style a character style instead of a paragraph
style. That way you can apply the Actual Rule style to just the "Rule x.yy"
text, leaving the rest of the paragraph in Normal or Body Text or whatever
you're using. The formatting can be the same or different; the only thing the
StyleRef field looks at is the style's name.

Finally, as Suzanne said, make sure the TOC options are set to pick up only TC
fields and not heading styles or outline levels.

Thanks for that, Jay. I had completely forgotten about that part until I
recently revised the article, and I'd already forgotten about it again!

This is a situation, I think, where your best bet is probably to apply the
numbering to the TOC styles as described in
