TOC not appearing in document

HI - I'm using Word 2002.
After going under Insert Reference Index Tables, I went
through Options to indicate which Headings should appear
in the TOC, Update from Template was shown, but when I had
my cursor where the Table of Contents should've appeared,
it doesn't do anything but does ask me if I want to
replace the existing TOC. I then tried the Marking Table
of Contents way but no luck there either. I'm wondering
if the Table of Contents is not appearing because this
Table of Contents needs to appear in the middle of the
document, using the 2nd set of headings I created, (with
different names)-? I also Cleared the Formatting at the
point where I'd like the TOC to appear but that did not
work either.
Sorry to be so verbose but I do appreciate any insight you
might have.
thanks,
Regina

Did you click on Options and type in level numbers for the headings you want
included?

If you have another index or TOC somewhere else in your document
already, then that's why Word 2002 is asking if you want to replace the
existing TOC. If you answer no, Word 2002 will insert the new index or
TOC where your cursor is, and it will leave the existing index or TOC
intact. Hope this helps. --garfield-n-odieATcharterDOTnet

Yes, I did do this. After scrolling through the document
to see where else TOC was (I inherited this document) it
turns out that TOC was designated as the Style following
certain headings. After I changed that, I also
replied "no" to replacing the TOC and that worked.
thanks for your help!
