Hi, Brian: Turn on View > Text Symbols to verify that there's a tab character to the left of the page numbers on the TOC body page, then:
* If there is NO tab character on the TOC body page, on the reference page named TOC, if there is no tab character (looks like a greater than symbol) to the left of the <$pagenum> building blocks for each line that represents an entry level, you need.to manually type a tab character at that spot. Then regenerate the TOC - FM creates the tab on the body page before the page number by "picking up" the one you type on the reference page. * If there IS a tab character to the left of the page number on the TOC body page, then the cause usually comes from the TOC reference page's text frame width being wider than the body page's text-frame width. If you've position the right-aligned tab stop at the right edge of the reference-page's text frame (the wider one), the tab character in the text frame on the TOC body page can't reach the tab stop.
