In Word 2000 I want to turn off the field codes after the Table of Contents has been generated and displayed onscreen, so that the entries are shown as words, not fields.

This was written up in Tech R very recently - can anyone remember the keystroke combination?

I'm trying to display a ToC and Table of Figures in the same document, and having fun getting it to work!

Highlight the fields and then use Alt+F9 to toggle between the field view and results.
Ctrl+Shift+F9 will unlink the fields, so it will just be text. (The hyperlinks won't work then, of course.)
Tools>Options View offers a check box to always dispay fields as well as a selection of ways to see fields - shadded or not.

Thanks. The other action is CTRL + SPACE, which reverts to ToC styles. That was the other one I was looking for.
