I am trying to create a table of contents page for my thesis. However, when am specifying my page numbers, am not able to set them in a straight line at all, compared to the previous entry. I have pasted an image of part of the problem am facing:
Jun 08, 2019 Table of Authorities numbering is off When I update my Table of Authorities/Table of Contents, the page numbers are correct in the Table of Contents, but the Table of Authorities page numbers are wrong when I print. I believe its because the TOA is picking up the page numbering with all the reveal codes in the document, but when I print the.
I am not able to align the numbers with space or tab as well, because somewhere the formatting seem to go wrong. Can you please help me? Am facing a deadline, but this maybe really silly, still am not able to do it.
Jason AllerTry this:

ABSTRACT ix
Access the paragraph formatting window. In Word 2007, you do this by clicking on the arrow to the right of the word “Paragraph” on the “Home” tab. In Word 2003, “Paragraph” is one of the options on the drop‐down “Format” menu.
In the paragraph formatting window, click “Tabs.”
Under “Tab stop position,” enter 6. Under “Alignment,” click “Right.” Under “Leader,” click 2. Click “Set,” and then click “OK.” ABSTRACT .......................................................................................................................................ix
Do this to all of your TOC headings, and your numbers will be aligned perfectly.
HINT: You can copy this formatting to other headings in your TOC so that you don’t have to change them individually. Make sure your cursor is on the line that you just formatted and then double‐click Word’s Format Painter (the icon that looks like a paint brush). Now click on the other lines that you want to have the same format. Just remember that the Format Painter copies all formatting, so for example, you don’t want to copy the formatting for an A‐level heading and apply it to a 1‐level heading. Otherwise, you will lose the indents and numbering that you set up for your 1‐level heading.
Exactly copied from source I take no credit.
