Default Updating and managing "fields"

I inherited a technical manual when I started this new job, the manual is
oblviously in word and has 85 pages, the table of contents is proving to be a
bit of a pain. I've modified different parts of the whole document and now
I'm ready for the table of contents to be updated. when I right click on it
and tell it to update the whole field is inserts certain text and pictures
from the document. I'm guessing it's because when I inserted the new info I
didn't assign the proper definition, there's all the different predefined
hyper links and I'm not sure which to use to get the correct result,

See http://www.ShaunaKelly.com/word/toc/CreateATOC.html for starters. Make
sure that you have the appropriate heading styles applied to the intended
headings (and nothing else).
