That is not the way that the Table of Contents works. Use the Outline View
for that sort of thing.

I am in Outline View. What I want to do is rearrange my whole book (it's
still early in the making that's why I want to learn this at this point). So
I highlight a subhead and use the arrow to move it up or down in the TOC
(which it does). But when I go to the actual location in the document, the
subhead and its copy have not been moved. I am doing all this in Outline View.

What are your consulting fees if I'd like your regular hand-holding on this?
Thanks very much!
