-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Tom, thanks for all of the work. In my case the it still doesn't work.
I think I have an idea what's going wrong. I don't understand "styles" and the proper application of them. Below is a line that was found at website wherein is a description of how to setup a clickable TOC. This is the beginning part of the directions the site offers; Apply paragraph styles (Heading1, etc.) to your heading text and set up outline numbering (Tools > Outline Numbering) to specify which paragraph styles go with what level headings. Maybe the problem of no clickable links in a TOC for me would be solved if I knew what settings to set ANY of the Tools>Outline Numbering "paragraph styles" to? Thanks for the links below but I read most of them on Saturday and ended up with same results- nothing. Thank you.

The export-to-Pdf makes hyper-links work without needing to press Ctrl while doing the left-click on the mouse.

When i think about it changing it to a wiki-mark-up would need the mark-up to be very different from normal wiki-mark-up and would probably make it even more confusing to new people while also confusing people that have learned their way around the way that it is now. Perhaps the Design Team might have some good ideas if someone asked them. > > > Have you tried the relevant chapters in the documentation on this wiki? > http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications > The Writer's Guide chapters 6, 7 and 12. > > For the ToC i think the crucial pages are p10 and 11 in Chapter 12 of the Writer's Guide.

I'm still trying to work out how to edit an entry in the ToC so that it's not the same as the heading in the document. > > Good luck!
