Set your tabs as dotted.

If you insert a TOC field (through Insert | Reference | Index and Tables |
Table of Contents), this will be automatic. But you seem to be constructing the TOC manually, so you will need to add a period leader to your right tab stop. For more on tabs and also on this type of alignment, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/SettingTabs.htm and http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/NumberAlignment.htm -- Suzanne S.
