AAAAAAD.............................................IV
BBBBBBB...............................................V

SUMMARY............................................1
INTRODUCTION..................................2

Glad you got the table of figures sorted.

Is this an index or a table of contents you are building?

Index--at end of book, in alphabetical order
Table of Contents--at start of book, in order of appearance

It looks like a Table of Contents.

Are you saying that you want the AAAA, BBBB, CCCC entries to *not* have page
numbers? If so, the answer is at this link--scroll down to the topics
"Peeking Behind the Curtain" and "Omitting Page Numbers" as that tells you
want you need to do.

If that isn't what you mean, please explain more clearly.

Daiya's got you started, but I don't think there's anything here that can be
accomplished with switches. You will need instead to use different headings
in your front matter. Instead of using Heading 1, for example, define a
Front Matter Head style, say, that is identical to Heading 1 but has an
outline level of Body Text instead of Level 1; then it will not be included
in the TOC.

If you want this for your TOC (Table of Contents):

>>> SUMMARY............................................1
>>> INTRODUCTION..................................2
>>> BLABLABLABLA..................................5
>>> CLACLACLACLA..................................10

Then follow the instructions on Suzanne's post. If her instructions do not
make sense, then reading this link may help you understand what is going on:

I thought you wanted this:

>>> AAAAAAD
>>> BBBBBBB
[quoted text clipped - 3 lines]
>>> BLABLABLABLA..................................5
>>> CLACLACLACLA..................................10

But it seems I was wrong, so you can completely ignore what I said.
