Yes, this is the correct way to build the TOC.  Make sure you are using the
correct paragraph styles (heading 1, heading 2, heading 3, ...) as these
are the heading paragraphs the Insert TOC command uses.  Also I use the
Auto No. legal field code {autonumlgl } so when I insert a new section it
will renumber all the section headings for me.

It sounds like you are just reformating the font type but still using the
paragraph style "normal" instead of "heading X".  If you use the Outline
mode you will be able to tell, headings will have a hollow plus symbol to
the left and all other paragraphs (non "heading X") will have a hollow
square symbol.

No need WfW does this automatically, if you need any more help, send me
some email.
