Default Problems updating table of contents

I am working on designing a protected template. I have set Editing
Restrictions to "No changes (Read only)". Under Exceptions, I have selected
areas of the document that I want everyone to be able to edit--one area being
the table of contents. I then protect the document. The problem occurs when
a user builds a document using the template. They can only update the table
of contents once. If an attempt is made to update the table of contents
twice, the user will find that Update Field is unavailable (disabled). Is
there a way to prevent this from happening so that the user can update the
table of contents whenever they need to?

Thanks

Default Problems updating table of contents

Hi Sscentrix,

I have the same problem and posted a question, which is in the list just a
few before yours. I've had one reply, but this didn't solve the problem.
I'll keep an eye on your replies, you might also want to check my replies to
see if I get a solution.

Good luck!
