 From Insert > Indexes and Table > Indexes and Tables, set up the
"Index/Table" tab as desired.

On the "Entries" tab, for each level you're using:
- Select the level in the left-hand list
- Click in the white box betwee "E#" ("Chapter Number") and "E"
("Entry") under "Structure and Formatting"
- Click "Tab Stop"
- Set an appropriate position for the tab stop

Thanks.  That worked.  It's a shame that at least one space or tab isn't 
included by default.

2.  If I create headings with the Illustration Style and insert a Table of
Illustrations, I get no entries.

Insert the illustration, then select it and use Insert > Caption. Make
sure the category is set to Illustration. That inserts a reference which
is recognised by the Table of Illustrations.

3.  I get a similar problem with a Table of Tables.

Similarly, create the table, position the cursor somewhere within it and
use Insert > Caption; the category should be Table.

The problem with this is that Insert > Caption is greyed out.

Any clues as to where I might find the answer to these problems please?

Probably in the Writer Guide at
<http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/documentation/>, but I haven't
looked to check...

Unfortunately, the Help says to use Insert > Caption.

However, your guidance gave me a clue as to how to get around the problem.  I 
was looking for an Option which might have disabled the Insert > Caption menu 
item and I found an entry called LibreOffice Writer > AutoCaption.  I enabled 
LibreOffice Writer Table, LibreOffice Writer Image and LibreOffice Drawing and 
found that, if I inserted a Table or Image, I was able to generate a heading 
that was collected by the Table of Tables or Table of Illustrations.

However, Insert > Caption is still greyed out, but at least there is a Work 
Round.
