[QUOTE="BudVitoff, post: 1791741, member: 211650"] Well, I was encouraged by your link title, but when I click on it I get to a page titled "Pages for Mac: Add a table of contacts in a Pages document", which I had already printed before I made my post so I'm still batting zero. From what you say, I'm not going to get my wish about not changing the font style for my headings. IMHO, that's not very user-friendly. One would think that it would default to what the user had already specified. Nevertheless, I can live with that, because I have other problems. From reading the help stuff, and from personal experience with other software doing the same kind of thing (many, MANY years ago), I should be able to add the paragraph styles and, as I do, the system should update the TOC in real-time. No joy there, because I select and double-click the first heading (one word), nothing happens, and when I move to the next heading, I lose the highlight on the first heading. I thought I might be able to keep that highlight using the command key but that didn't work. Then as a final slap in the face, I get a second TOC right after the first with the same error message, and my first heading just disappears. I know I'm doing something wrong -- I just don't know what it is! [/QUOTE]
