TOC indenting a heading that shouldn't be indented

Hi, Gang!

I've created a TOC for a book and the TOC entries for the two divider pages are indenting when they should not be. The TOC style for the divider page heading has no indentation and the entry on the TOC reference page looks correct. To make things stranger, the two entries are indenting by different amounts in the TOC.

Here's a screen capture that shows 1) the first TOC entry (indented a lot), 2) the second TOC entry (indented less, but still indented), and 3) the divider page style on the reference page.

I'm stumped.

Does anyone have any ideas why this indentation would be happening?

Many thanks!

    Rocky,

    OR, control-click the text frame and UNCHECK allow for sideheads. For reasons unknow to me, sometimes Framemaker turns this on when you are creating a new TOC or Index.

    It looks like there's a sidehead being applied to the first & second TOC entries. Check your tags, i.e. place your cursor in each and look at the Status bar. If you see an asterisk (*) after the tag name, there's an override.
