The way to make your changes permanent is to modify the paragraph
style definitions of headings and toc entries to suit your needs. For

TOC entries will pick up *direct* font formatting of headings.
Make sure
that any bold headings have bold as part of the heading style
(perhaps
this
is what you meant when you said "even though i have changed the
style").
You
can then format the TOC styles independently of the heading
styles. For a
start, select the whole TOC and press Ctrl+Spacebar to see if that
makes a
difference.
