If the recipient is viewing in Reading Layout, I believe this is a known bug.
Any other view, the TOC seems to be ok. "Freddie Fredricks" wrote: When emailing a Word doc via Outlook, the receipient opens the document and the TOC page numbers are changed to all read 1. This happens to more than one receipient. |

This is a known result of opening an attachment in Reading Layout view.
There is nothing you can do on your end to affect this accept make suggestions: 1. You can suggest that the recipient save the document to the hard drive and open it from there instead of directly from the attachment. Reading Layout view affects only attachments. 2. You can suggest that the recipient disable Reading Layout view (Tools | Options | General). The recipient may thank you for this information (many people don't really like Reading Layout view but don't know how to avoid it). 3. If the recipient is unwilling to do either of the above, you can suggest that (as Jean-Guy) pointed out, the TOC can be updated with F9 after switching to a different view. -- Suzanne S.

Indeed! I turned it off immediately as well. At the time, I never opened
attachments directly, anyway, but now I often do if they're "throwaways" (e.g., stuff I'm looking at for users). -- Suzanne S.
