How do I create a Table of Contents with the page numbers on the l

[ADT2]

I'd like to create a TOC with the pages numbers on the left-hand side of the
page (i.e., the page number is listed before the heading title). Is this
possible? If so, how do I do it?

The only way to do it is to unlink the Table of Contents from its source and
then manually, or using a WildCard Edit Replace, re-arrange the information.
Of course that whole process can be automated with a macro which could do
the whole process of creation and modification of the table of contents.

For a Wildcard replace, using something like

^13([A-z 0-9]{1,}^t[A-z, 0-9]{1,})^t([0-9]{1,})

in the Find what control and

^p\2^t\1

in the replace control will modify all but the first entry in the table of
contents

Or, as seen from Winnie's post with the subject "Left Aligned page #s on
Table of Contents," have a right-to-left language enabled.
