Rocky,

IMC, I didn't have a real document, just data that I wanted in a TOC format.

Susan:

I used the TOC feature in Access and it is truly slick.  You have to do some
pre-planning so that the heads, sub-heads, sub-sub-heads, etc. use a
consistent font.  Then you tell the TOC generator what kind of font
represents which level. Whenever I make changes to the manual, regenerating
the TOC is just a few clicks.  Makes a beautiful TOC with bullets and
everything. 

I also did the same for the list of figures and tables.  I can send you a
copy off line if you're interested.

John, have you considered exporting the query results to Word and using its
features? Doesn't word have a TOC feature? I've never used it, so maybe I'm
goofy.

Doris,

Yea, that is what I did, straight in an Access report.  I had to go with a
monospace font to allow everything to line up correctly but it is working.
