Default Putting Table of Contents into Table Cells

Why am I doing it?

I have paragraphs of data with titles. I need it in a table because I need
to manually enter data in other columns of the table and I wanted the table
to be the first page and people can click on the titles in the table to go to
the paragraphs below. If you can think of a better way to do it I'm happy to
try.

Whilst Graham and Herb gave you perfect technical adice, I am puzzled
why you want to do this.... Is it a formatting issue you cannot
perform otherwise, or maybe that you assume cannot be done otherwise?

updated.
So, make sure
it's in final form before doing this... or, be prepared to do it

again
when
you want to update the ToC (i.e., reinsert the toc field, convert to
text,
then convert text to table).

Select the TOC (a field) and press CTRL+Shift+F9 to convert the

field
to
text. Then while the text remains selected Table convert text to
table.

Is there any way for me to change a table of contents so that each
entry in the TOC goes into a different cell in a table?

Currently the best I can do is get the whole TOC to appear in one
cell or otherwise manually paste the TOC titles into the cells.-
