Thanks Roderick, I did that and got a response that the issue was resolved (long ago) and closed. This was the comment from the developer:
" Help Title: "Entries (table of contents)" Text: "Tab stop (T) Inserts a tab stop. *To add leader dots to the tab stop, select a character in the Fill character box*. To change the position of the tab stop, enter a value in the Tab stop position box, or select the Align right check box." So, click on [T] and choose the desired fill character. " It's a bit confusing, but I found a way to make it work. It does definitely not work in the Stylist, but right clicking anywhere in the TOC and choosing Edit Index/Table does. Go to Entries | Level and click on the T for Tab stop. This opens a few option boxes in the bottom of the edit window, including the fill character.
