It worked! I had tried almost exactly that procedure before, but something
was different...maybe I didn't right-align the tab. Thanks very much!

Did you follow this procedure?
1. Go to Format | Style (or, in Word 2002/2003, click on Styles... in the
Format Settings dialog you get if you select Custom at the bottom of the
Styles and Formatting task pane).
2. In the All Styles list, select TOC 1.
3. Click Modify...
4. In the Modify Style dialog, click Format.
5. On the Format menu, select Tabs.
6. Set a right-aligned tab with period leader at 6" or 6.5" or whatever
measurement represents your right margin.
7. OK out.

Nothing seems to work. One clue is that in the Index and Tables dialog,
under
Print Preview, Heading 1 appears as "Heading 1 1". Heading 2 appears as
"Heading 2 3". Heading 3 appears as it should, as "Heading 3". The problem
is
probably related to the fact that I'm using outline numbering for the
headings.

The TOC 1 style may then have lost its right-margin tab, and you'll need
to
restore it.

Unfortunately, that didn't do it.

I click Insert-Reference-Index and Tables, click Show Page
Numbers
and
Right align page numbers, and click Tab Leader .... My format is
"From
Template". Then I click OK. My Heading 2s and Heading 3s format
correctly
in
the TOC--there are dots leading to the page number at the
right-hand
margin.
For Heading 1, though, there is only a tab and then the page
number
IMMEDIATELY to the right of the heading name--no dots. What is
controlling
this?
Thanks!
