I have a document set up with a TOC. Following the TOC, we would like
to put a little three-line note. I inserted a text box and put in the
note, but when I make changes to the document and update the TOC, it
deletes my note on the TOC page. How can I put text on that page and
keep it there?
Thanks for any help you can give me.

The TOC itself is a single field. Anything you insert inside that field
(also any direct formatting you apply to it) will be lost any time the field
is updated.
You have to click outside the field and then insert the text box, so that
the "anchor" of the text box is not inside the TOC field. Then it will be
independent of the field and its updates. Also, the text can just be placed
in the paragraph that follows the TOC; it doesn't have to be in a text box
(unless you want to be able to position it by dragging it).
