Hi all
I have a weird problem with TOC
The following (simplified) code put a TC field and make a TOC from that:

Private Sub TabCon()

Selection.HomeKey unit:=wdStory

ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents.MarkEntry Range:=Selection.Range, _
    Entry:="text1" & Chr(9) & "text2" & Chr(9) & "text3", TableID:="P"

Selection.EndKey unit:=wdStory

ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents.Add Range:=Selection.Range, UseFields:=True, _
    UseHeadingStyles:=False, TableID:="P"

End Sub

While the TC field is inserted with tabulations:

{ TC "text1(tab)text2(tab)text3" \f P \l "1" }

where (tab) is the tabulation mark, the TOC is inserted only with the first tabulation (and tabulation for page) the second tabulation become a space:

text1(tab)text2 text3(tab)1
Field: { TOC \f P }

Can anyone explain it to me and/or solve the problem I would greately appreciate that - thanks!

Best regards
