Hi Fredrik,

The TOC needs to be updated, References -> Update Table in Word.

HTH,

Bernard

Just right click on TOC and as Bernard says, select "update". You will see that it appears with the correct page numbers.

Do let us know how this went, good luck!

Several good advices, thanks! Jul 9, 2013

Ok, thanks everyone for your tips! I will use your suggestions next time. Just e-mailed the finished translation to my customer. This time I copied and pasted the TOC from the original. Don't need to do that next time!
