Try this go to Insert | Indexes and Tables in W 97 and 2K. In XP select that
from the Insert | Reference | Indexes and Tables.

Click on the Table of Contents tab. Then the Modify button. Select the TOC
level to be indented. Click Modify again. Select Format | Paragraph and set
your left indent to the degree needed. If there is only one change click
your way out saying OK on each page. Otherwise make changes as necessary
then exit. You will be told it is updating. Looks like you have a problem in
the assigned headings.

One possible way of doing it is to make Heading 1 anything numbered 1.0, 2.0
etc
Heading 2 anything numbered 1.1, 1.2 etc
Heading 3 anything numbered 1.1.1, 1.1.2 etc
Then it should work nicely.

Please don't attach large files to this NG. A description of the problem
normally suffices.

Indents for TOC entries are set by the TOC 1, TOC 2, etc., styles. By
default, they have graduated indents.
