Default Table of contents

When I send a WORD document using OUTLOOK, the TOC loses its formatting. The
table then needs to be updated again. Is there a way to keep it as a TOC
(not doing the Ctrl-Shift-F9) and send it so it arrives with the correct page
numbers?

Try Ctrl-3 instead of Ctrl-Shif-F9. This locks the field but it remains a
field.
What do you mean when you say it loses its formatting? Are you sending as an
attachment?

Your recipients are probably opening the document in Reading Layout view.
When they switch to another view, F9 to update the TOC will straighten it
out, but you might suggest they disable Reading Layout on the General tab of
Tools | Options.
