Table of Contents

Is it possible to have a Table of Contents entry for a page range, such as:

SECTION I
Introduction 1-2
Reports 3-7
Charts 8-9

Or can you only reference one page per entry?

Click to expand...

The TOC field that generates the table of contents can't do this.

If your document won't change any longer, so the TOC doesn't need to be
updated, then you can unlink the TOC field by clicking in it and pressing
Ctrl+Shift+F9. That turns it into plain text, which you can edit to add the
dash and ending number for each entry.

It seems like a lot of unnecessary work, though -- the natural assumption in
all TOCs is that each entry ends on the page preceding the start of the next
entry (or possibly the same page, if the layout is continuous).
