Default Creating List of Tables and concatenating Table Title

I have a technical document that has many tables with long titles. I am able
to create a List of Tables but have not been able to figure out how to bring
multiple title lines onto one line in the List.

Any ideas?
Thanks
Peace

Default Creating List of Tables and concatenating Table Title

If you have used line breaks (Shift+Enter) in the table captions, each line
break will by default be rendered as a space in the List of Tables. If the
lines are quite long, be sure to add a right indent to the TOC style you're
using for the list so that the titles will wrap short of the page numbers.

Right on the button. Thanks. Now if I can just remember those directions next
time I need them.
