Word 2002 - Table of Contents

When marking text manually, which includes quotation
marks, for a Table of Conents -- such as

"My Heading"
(b)  "my text"

generates a ToC looking like this:

My Heading"..................2\
(b)  "my text"..............3\\

Does anyone have an answer to this?  I realize Word is
confused because of the quotation marks it uses to
identify the ToC text, but hopefully there is a
workaround.

btw, delete xxx from email to respond directly.  Thank
you.

ISTR that the workaround that found the most favor was using two single
quotes instead of a double quote. Doesn't look quite the same but does work.

I adapted that approach for a merge document I have that reads addresses to
find ZIP codes and create a POSTNET bar code. If the address contains
quotes, the barcode field doesn't work right.
