TOCs are hyperlinked by default in Word 2000 and above, and in all versions,
even if you decline hyperlinking of the entries themselves, the page number
is hyperlinked. The entries will not, however, be blue and underlined
(except on a Web page) even though the Hyperlink character style is applied.
This is because Word is formatting for a printed document. When you mouse
over an entry, you should get the hand and a ScreenTip that says "CTRL +
Click to follow link."

and I loose some of the letters

it also turns my entire doc into a TOC

Hi JRS,

Suzanne did say "CTRL + Click". Ctrl-Enter inserts a page break!

Cheers
