FieldTOAEntry

[Rob]

Does anyone have a working example of how to add FieldTOAEntry to a document?  The FieldTOA exists in the document but there aren't any entries in the table.

                 string toatitle = "(APP, 2020)";

                WField field = paragraph.AppendField(toatitle, FieldType.FieldTOAEntry) as WField;

                string toaentry = "{CITATION APP \\I Who we are, 2020}";

                field.FieldCode = toaentry;

I've got this far, replicating what I can see in a real Word Document.  I'm assuming I'm not formatting the entries correctly so it's missing data, but there aren't any errors.

My requirement is to create a word document from separate html files.  

• I create a table of contents
• Then create a new document.paragraph
• And then insert each HTML file as the chapter content 
• Finally I want to programmatically create a table of references at the end of the document.

So I'm building a report programmatically based on seperate inputs.

When building a table of contents, AppendTOC inserts a table of contents, and then for every header field added to the document the Table of Contents gets updated.  And that works as expected.

I expected the FieldTOA to do the a similar thing for references, where it would pickup every FieldTOAEntry in the document to update itself

I've created a sample document attached
