Hi Michael,

Instead of building the Table of contents by "paragraph style", create a
Index of type "Table of Contents" using "Index marks".

new chapter, to prevent it from getting moved or erased if someone later
works on vertical spacing with hard returns.

To create new hidden entries

    1. Set the cursor to each location you want the TOC to point to. Then in
    the Insert Menu - > Index and Table of Contents -> Index Entry
    - Index type : Table of Contents
       - Entry : (text you want to appear on the TOC page)
       - level : if you want to style some entries differently set them to a
       different level, then assign the alternate style in the TOC setup.
       - Each time you click OK, you create an entry that matches the field
       values. If you have fields set to display you can see a light
grey block.
       - Extra entries may be deleted with the backspace or delete key as a
       character in the paragraph.


       2. Set the cursor to the point you want the TOC to appear. Create a
    TOC as normal, but choose Index marks instead of 'Additional Styles.'

For creating the hidden "Dedication" reference target, I think your approach is the right one. 
However, it's also important to respect Dave's (OU) existing outline structure, so wouldn't it be better to 
built the TOC on a combination of structure (the usual default indexing basis) /plus/ index mark(s), rather 
than going to the extra effort of making index marks when there is an existing structure to the document?

Kind regards,
John
