For a saved file with a TOC generated on another machine by another user,
while logged in as myself, I get a one-line TOC that looks like this

TABLE OF CONTENTS


{ TOC \o "1-3" \h \z \n 1-1}

If I log in as someone else, the full 32 line table of contents appears.

Amazingly, I tried to copy and paste the bracketed text above and the full
TOC appeared in this message.

Could this be a registry problem?

Yesterday, my IT professional removed and reinstalled Word (the whole suite
as well).

Under Tools and Options, in the View section, you can select to display
Field Codes (that's what it's doing). If you *uncheck* this, and than save
the document, it will display normally. You can also toggle these codes by
pressing ALT+F9.
