If you are using Print Layout View with your document, it will not matter whether you are using the Show/Hide feature or not. These are non-printing characters and do not change spacing of your printed document in any way. I always advise my students to work in Print Layout View so that they know what their document will look like when they print it. Also, there is no need to select the entire document to update a TOC; simply click anywhere on the shaded TOC and click on F9. The beauty of an automatically generated TOC is that you do not have to modify manually. If, when you print your document you see changes in the TOC, such as spacing, this requires that you modify the TOC Style. Visit http://www.carolscorneroffice to learn more.
