Thank you, that helped and thanks for the other sites.
Now, can I hyperlink the ToC back to the document?

Yes, but understand that an automatically generated TOC is a field. First,
save your document and then use Save As to work on a copy. To sort such a
field, you would first change it to ordinary text. Click in the TOC and try
to select something until the entire TOC is selected. Then press Ctrl-6 or
Ctrl-Shift-F9 to unlink the field. With it still selected, go under the
Tables menu and select Sort. You want to sort by paragraph.

Is there a way of sorting a ToC alphabetically?
I have several tables with items, descriptions, etc. Colum 1 lists the
items. I have a table of contents of the items, now is there a way to
sort
this alphabetically?
