2 Tabs (end of titile + page number) for Table of Contents ?

In Word 2007, I am formatting an automatic Table of Contents. The problem is
that some titles are so long that they go past the alignment of the page
numbers. I believe the problem can be solved by creating 2 tabs in the
appropriate TOC, one for the end of the title and the other for the alignment
of the page numbers to the right, but how do I do this in the modify TOC
dialogue box. I have done this manually, directly in the table of contents
and the table looks great, but, of course, when I update the table, the tabs
disappear.

You don't need two tabs; you need a right indent. Set the right indent a
good half inch or more left of the right-aligned tab for the page numbers.
