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?

Oh yea - the other thing. The page size/margins on the body page of the
TOC look just fine, but when I open the reference page, the actual text
entry area is reduced significantly and the margins are shifted. On the
body page, I have a 1 inch margin on the left and one inch on the right.
On the Reference page, the left margin is shifted over to 0.25 and the
right margin is now over 2.5 inches.

Subject:        Major problems with generating TOC

Framemaker 7.2 on Windows XP.

I am trying to something very basic and simple - create a TOC for a
book. Right now, I have but a single file in the book. I use Add >
Table of Contents, select the paragraph tags that I want to include in
the TOC, then generate the book. When I open the TOC and go to view
the reference page to format the TOC entries, the TOC reference page
shows absolutely no entries for any of the paragraph tags that I have
selected. Instead, it shows entries for tags that do not exist
anywhere in the single file for which I am generating the TOC and this
file was not created from an existing template/file. This single file
was created totally from scratch.
That is, I have chosen Heading1, Heading2, and Heading3 to generate my
TOC. When I open the TOC Reference page, I don't see any of the
following entries: Heading1TOC, Heading2TOC, and Heading3TOC. Instead,
I see a bunch of weird entries with buried end of flow symbols and tab
symbols and only the first two are selectable and editable. I cannot
select anything else on the Reference page.

I am absolutely stymied by this. In all of my years of using
Framemaker, I have never seen anything like this in my life. Any and
all help is sincerely appreciated.
