I havea problem with a 105 page document that I have written. I added in
four pages recently, and when I attempt to update the table of contents
field, it does not pick up the three entries that I have set using the
Heading 1 and Heading 2 format styles.

Can anyone make a suggestion as to what I am missing in doing this?

If this is posted to the wrong newsgroup, can someone suggest the right one?

How did you create your headings in the other parts of the document?
With built-in headings, custom styles, TC fields, and/or outline
levels?

I simply used the heading 1, 2 and 3 styles, which have built in formats,
and are preset by Word. I did nothing fancy myself.

What displays instead of the table of contents as you press Alt+F9 to
show field codes? You should see something similar to
{ TOC \o "1-3" }.
