I have a Table of Contents already created on a page, and I'd like to update it after adding page items to the document via VB.

Can I use Document.CreateTOC for that? If so, what do I put for the Book and placePoint parameters?

I'm getting very frustrated with parameters being listed as "Variant" when they could be Array (y, x) or possibly Array (x1, y1, x2, y2), or possibly some object, and there's no documentation anywhere on what's expected.
