Major problems with generating TOC

[Peter Gold]

Hi, Tammy:

If you're using a copied or renamed or otherwise "recycled" book file, 
you're probably picking up information from it in the TOC you're 
creating. Have you tried creating a new book file and adding the new 
document file to it, then adding the TOC and generating? What results?
