Difficulty Creating a TOC

[Art Campbell]

Since those are para tags and not variables, Fred's solution is also
what I'd do.

There seems to be another problem though, in the order in which the
paratags are read in the TOC, because your example shows them out of
order. To fix that, I believe all you need to do is re-order the
strings in the Contents block on the Reference page, but you'd need to
test that.

*** You may want to make a backup copy of your TOC file before you
start making the mods...***

The key step to attaining what you want is to define the Para1TOC tag to be a Run-In Head (on the Pagination tab of the Paragraph Designer). On the TOC reference page of the TOC file, you'll want to include the <$pagenum> building block only in the Para2TOC prototype paragraph and also set an appropriate tab in the corresponding paragraph format definition.
