Can somebody please help me?

I need to set up a sort of "Table of Contents" in a access report where I
want to list the headings in the report and indicate on which pages the
headings are.

How do I indicate that "Object" A was on page 1, "Object B" on page 2, etc.

Please if possible no code!

Your help will be appreciated

Me again

After reading some of the posts its seems that Access cannot do a Table of
Contents except with some complicated code process of creating another table
and then generating the table of contents in a separate report.

Is there however no way of just indicating that "Object A" is on page 1 etc.?

Not possible without using code. Think about it, a report
is based on data and a table of contents' data (object and
page no) has to come from the report itself. Therefore, the
TOC data can not be available until the report has finished
processing its data. The TOC data had to saved somehow
using (complicated?) code while your report is processed so
it can be retrieved after all the processing of your
report's objects has been done.
