TOC appears correct until printed, then some entries gain another.

The table of contents appears correct, but when printed another digit is
added to only some of the entries. I've checked the field codes and they
look the same as the ones that do not gain the extra digit. Any ideas?
 
It almost sounds as if you're tracking changes, and deleted text is printed
but not shown on screen. That would mean that if a page number in the TOC
changed from the original, both the old page number and the new would print
side by side. Try selecting the TOC and then accepting changes in it.

I hope this helps.

"The document contains no comments or tracked changes". When I toggle the
field codes on the lines are mess up, I get
{HYPERLINK /I "_Toc159905527"}1
{HYPERLINK /I "_Toc159905532"}3

What is the significance of the 1 and 3? The other lines don't have the
extra digit.
 
Have you updated the TOC (not just the page numbers but the whole thing)?
 
I've tried that. The document was created by someone else. It appears to be
a combination of styles and marked items in the TOC. I suppose just
recreating it all using one method or the other would be best?
 
I would expect combining styles and TC fields to cause problems if TC fields
were used to include headings that formatted with styles that are included
in the TOC. Whether it's possible to use just one or the other depends a lot
on the headings.
