Default Table of Authorities - Headings / Categories - Switches

I've never used a TOA, so I'm not sure how this works (even after reading
Word's Help on TOA and TA fields), but does anything different happen if you
omit the quotes around "8"? From the Help, it appears that the \c category
switch is *not* quoted in the TA field, but the examples do show it quoted
after the \h switch in the TOA field, so it looks like you've got it right.
I'm just wondering if you can have custom headings or if the ones that seem
to be hard-coded in Word are the only allowable ones.

I am working on a brief where I need a TOA that is broken down into cases
from within my state and those from other jurisdictions. In marking the
entries, I am marking the in-state cases as "cases" (1) and out-of-state
cases as "8". In my TOA, I attempted to caption these using the \h switch
without any success.

{ TOA \h "Cases from Other Jurisdictions" \c "8" }

What I get is "8" as a heading instead of "Cases from Other

Jurisdictions."

Is there any way to do this, or do I just have to unlink the field and

edit
the result?
