You have to move the styles manually, even if the template TOC file had styles set up from before. My guess is that FM clears out the old information as a "feature"; it only allows you to add paragraph tags that are in your existing files, so it must first clear out everything that was there from before.

Zorn; 'List, Framers' Subject: RE: How do I get TOC styles to appear in Setup Table ofContents"Include Paragraphs Tagged" Karen...no, it doesn't. 1) I have a book, named Test, with three files: TestFile1 TestFile2 TestFile3 No TOC yet 2) In the book, I select Add -> Table of Contents. I do not move any styles, just click the Add button. It creates TestTOC.fm 3) I open an existing TOC, we'll call it mpls_install_guideTOC.fm 4) I save it as c:\temp\TestTOC.fm and say its OK to overwrite 5) Return back to test.book, select Edit -> Update Book 6) Click all option except Apply Master Page, the testTOC is in generate, and click Update. 7) Highlight the file testTOC.fm, right click and select Set Up table of Contents No styleas are in the left side pane.
