My Level 3 TOC number is bold and it should not be bold. The Level 2 TOC
numbering is correct. Even going into the all the different ways to change the styles does not fix this problem. I am an advanced user (technical writer) with over 15 years experience with word, but this one has me stumped. |

TOC entries reflect directly applied font formatting, which suggests that
the number in the document has been directly formatted as either bold or not bold (if the style calls for bold). Note that if your heading style is bold *and* the number format calls for bold, this might be the source of the problem. -- Suzanne S.

Actually we figured it out. But it is was not how word should work.
We actually have a very mature template that we all use. Looking at all the formatting and styles indicated that the number should not be bold, but it was. We fixed the problem by modifying the TOC 3 style via the number formatting. We deleting the font call (arial) and that fixed the problem. Again all our other settings were such that the numbers should not have been bold, but they were. We look at it as a workaround. "Suzanne S.
