Default Formatting Numbers in Table of Contents

Help! The numbers in some (but not all) of my sub-categories in Word are
being bolded (and I don't want them bolded -- only my first level TOC1).
I have categories like this:

1 This is my first level subject
1.1 This is my second level subject
1.2 More on this
1.2.1 This is my third level subject
2 Second level
2.1 more
2.1.1 More

Anyhow, not consistently, the 1.1 or 2.1.1 or whatever is choosing to be
bolded and I don't want that. I'm working on something VERY important at
work that has to be delivered to another company and I can't send it like
this. I figure it's some nuance of Word, but I don't know what it is and I
need help FAST.

Thanks! Patti

Default Formatting Numbers in Table of Contents

The table of contents could be picking up direct formatting from your
headings. Select each of the problem headings and press Ctrl+SpaceBar;
this clears any font settings not in style. (Make sure that you select
the *entire* heading paragraph!) When you are done, update the table
of contents, and see if it behaves.
