Table of Contents

How can I separate an automatic Table of Contents update when there is an
Appendix A and Appendix B and I want them to be on the same page but
different sections. When I hit update field it puts it all back in one
section again.

I'm trying to get a mental picture of what you're describing, and I'm
failing. Is the problem occurring in the TOC itself or in the appendixes?
Are you saying that updating the TOC results in deleting a section break
between sections in the appendixes?

Create three seperate TOCs. The TOCs can be seperated by blank lines, page
breaks or section breaks.

Each TOC would select only the styels that are appropriate for that section.

Here is a reference for how to create a multiple TOC document

If you only need extra space (no heading) between the TOC sections, you can
change the appendix heading within the TOC field to TOC level 6 (or some such)
. Update the TOC 6 style to match TOC 1 style, but change the space before to,
say, 14 pts and checkmark the Don't add space between paragraphs of the same
style checkbox. The updated TOC will retain the spacing.
