Hello,
When I create my automatic table of contents, I have a problem with the page numbering displayed in the table of contents. The page number of the table of contents does not correspond to the actual page number.
For example:
“Title 1” followed by “Title 2” starts on page “1.1-1” (page numbering including titles 1 and 2). In my table of contents, title 1 is listed on page “0.4-1” (the previous page) instead of “1.1-1”. However, my title 2 is correct, and the table of contents shows it is on page 1.1-1.
Each Chapter of “heading 2” is isolated on an odd page with section breaks to always start at “1”.
Can you help me?
Thanks in advance!
Configuration: Windows / Internet Explorer 11.0

Hello,
Can you tell me more?
Because, for me, 1.1-1 is not a page number. I mean, a page number is not made up of a paragraph number.
So, the question: how do you insert these page numbers?

There’s no need to ask me your questions privately. I won’t answer them.

Hello M@rina,
Yes, it's indeed the page number. You just need to link its page number to style 1, 2, or 3... and include the chapter in the numbering. If linked to style 2, you get a 3-digit page number. This link is made via the "Page number format".
Thank you for your interest. In the meantime, I realized that Word does not support a table of contents containing multiple "style 1" titles with automatic 3-digit numbering. Therefore, my solution has been to split my chapters into different files.
