Description robertpopa22 2005-05-26 12:07:30 UTC 
Paragraph insert cannot be done before TOC if the TOC is at the beginning of the
document. Neither Enter nor ALT+Enter works.

MRU->OS: as described... works for protected sections; should also work for TOC's

The only way to do this before an existing TOC is:

1. Right-click on the TOC and choose Edit index/table. Under the title and type
is a checkbox, "protected against manual changes." That's selected by default.
De-select it.
2. Now click in front of your TOC title (or if you don't have one, the first entry).
3. Press Alt+Enter twice. The first time will insert what looks like another TOC
paragraph above the TOC, and the second inserts a normal paragraph.
4. Now edit the TOC field again and re-select the "protected" checkbox. The
extra TOC-format paragraph disappears and you have an editable plain paragraph.

This method looks like it contains two other unexpected behaviors. The first
Alt+Enter should insert a regular paragraph, not a TOC paragraph. And why does
that blank TOC paragraph disappear on its own when the protection is turned on?
