Have searched help and forum topics but don't see this particular issue. I
have created custom Heading 1, Heading, 2 styles and applied those styles to
the elements of my report I want to appear in the TOC. Under Index and
Tables TOC tab I indicated the features for TOC and designated the levels to
appear. Still, only the code appears and not the actual text. Could this be a
problem of "borken" preferences? or am I missing something? Thanks for your
help!

Press Alt+F9 to switch between display of field codes (what you
see now) and field results. If that doesn't help, then in Word,
click on Tools | Options | View tab | uncheck the boxes for
"All", "Hidden text", and "Field codes" | Print tab | uncheck the
"Hidden text" and "Field codes" boxes | OK.
