Default Shortcut to Toggle Table of Contents field on and off

If you lock it, then, as I indicated, you can unlock it. If you unlink it,
it becomes plain text. The only way to get a TOC field again is to reinsert
it from scratch.

Hello,

Locking the TOC helps but I'm wondering if there is anything which can

turn
the TOC from text back into a TOC field again--i.e., CTRL SHFT F9 makes it
text...what shortcut turns it back to TOC field?

Thank you!

It would be nifty to make a TOC text, edit it, and change it back to a

TOC
field again.

I noticed someone posted a shortcut to turn the TOC field to

text...Select
the TOC field, and press Ctrl+Shift+F9.
1) Is there a shortcut to turn it back to a TOC field again?

While it was text, I noticed my TOC entries turned into

blue-underlined
hyperlinks. When I tried to change them to normal text or clear

formatting
I
lost my tab leaders in my TOC.
1) When you have changed your TOC to text, can you remove the

hyperlink
formatting from the entries while keeping your formatting...like your

tab
leaders?

Thank you!
