Are you sure? Normally, none of the *-headings are supposed to appear in the TOC (that's what the star insicates, amongst others). Sorry, I have got a problem to update my LyX news files. May be I misinterpret, but in "Document parameters ", "Numbering and TOC" window, I find : Example numbered appears in TOC Part* yes yes section* yes yes subsection yes yes subsubsection no no ....... and when I click on the "toc" button inside the document it is exactly what is appearing. but never in the pdf doc. If you want unnumbered sections in the TOC, you have to do something else. Here are some possibilities: (1) write \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{<the actual chapter text>} in TeX-mode just below the Chapter*. If it's a Sction*. replace "chapter" by "section". (2) use KOMA-book as a class and use "Addchap" and "Addsec" instead of Chapter* and Section* (3) if you have only unnumbered, no numbered headings, just use Chapter and Section and set "Numbering" to "no" in Document->Settings->Numbering & TOC Thanks for the tip, I was afraid to use the "slider" to modify the numbering to "no". thanks again Paul
