According to Word's Help:
\f EntryIdentifier
Builds a table from TC fields. If EntryIdentifier is specified, the table is
built only from TC fields with the same identifier (typically a letter). For
example, { TOC \f t } builds a table of contents from TC fields such as { TC
"Entry Text" \f t }.
If you have not used any TC fields in the document, then you will not have
any TOC entries.

Things just get stranger by the minute. When I pressed Alt F9 what
appeared
was "TOC \F". Where in the world did the F come from?
Thanks so much for the reply, Doug, and all the other times you've helped
me.

Press Alt+F9 and in place of the table of contents you should see
something
like
{TOC \o "1-5" \h \z \u}
Replace the 5 with 3 and then press Alt+F9 again and the F9 and select
the
Update entire table option.

Someone sent me a document with five levels of TOC marked. He only
wants
the
first three levels to show in the TOC. However, no matter how many
times
I
tell Word to show level 3 in the appropriate box, it also shows levels
4
and
5.
Is there anything short of just deleting those from the already-built
TOC
that I can do to force Word to show only 3 levels?
As always--thanks!
