Hello Bashar, One possible way is to insert in the entry structure a tab (T) between E# and E. Just edit the index/table then in the Entries page place the mouse in the white space between the E# and E and press Tab Stop. Now, inserting a tab stop value which is wider than the deepest level in your structure (1 - 1.5 cm) does the trick, however the ToC does not look very nice since this creates too much space between the level 1 numbering and the level 1 entry. If you set the tab to be smaller than the width of the numbering the ToC goes all over the place. If you want to do a "proper" job, then you will have to set the tab stop on each level individually while modifying at the same time the indent value for the Contents X paragraph style (assuming you are using the default para styles in your ToC). It is a bit of a pain, but the results are much nicer. A simpler fix is to insert some spaces in the entry structure between E# and E. Again, just edit the index/table then in the Entries page place the mouse in the white space between E# and E and press the spacebar a couple of times. Hope that helps.
