Kalpana:
I suggest that you check how your Heading styles are created.
Specifically, check the numbering and see how far indented the
text is supposed to start from the numbering of the section.
This may be causing your problem. You can modify the TOC
headings that are giving you trouble by clicking the Options
button on the Table of Contents dialog box.
Hope this helps.

Subject: TOC problem
| Hi,
|
| I am facing a problem in Word 97.
|
| In my TOC- the tab spacing between the heading numbers and the
TOC
| title is too large. For e.g., my TOC 2 looks like the
following:
|
| 2.1----------------------------Configuration <page number>
|
| Instead of
|
| 2.1 Configuration----------------------------<page number>
|
| I have tried everything to sort it but nothing seems to work.
Would
| really appreciate your help in solving this problem.
|
| Thanks,
| Kalpana.
