Default title in TOC multiple times

I have 2 instances where the titles appears twice in the TOC. In both cases,
the first entry has only a page break and no other text and the second entry
is the correct one. IE, in example below, page 16 has only a page break,
page 17 is the correct page for the Show Committee listing.

Example:
Show Committee...................................16
Show Committee...................................17

How do I correct this problem?

G'Day TX,

You have something like a space before the page break on Page 16.

Remove this to fix the problem.

Instead of inserting a manual page break before the heading, format the
heading as "Page break before" (Format | Paragraph | Line and Page Breaks).

Do I understand correctly that the heading is the first thing on page
17, and that it's immediately preceded by a manual page break? In that
case, remove the manual page break (which is part of the same
paragraph as the heading, and therefore has the same Heading style,
which is why it's appearing in the TOC). Right-click the heading,
select Paragraph, click the Line & Page Breaks tab of the dialog, and
check the box for the "Page break before" option.

Default G'Day TX,You have something like a space before the page break onPage 16.

I had the same issue, and this was exactly the problem. I went back, removed the space, and the TOC updated correctly, with no mutliple pages listed. Thanks!
