Chris,

I haven't had time to read through all of my mail yet, so maybe this as been 
answered.

Unfortunately, bookshare doesn't retain tabs. The best way to get a table of 
contents with the page number within a space of the title, if the TOC didn't 
scan, is to ask one of us sighted volunteers to get the book, do the TOC for 
you, and send it to you. I've fixed TOCs where all the page numbers have been 
in a block belows the titles. grin--but copying from the print book is not 
problem.

Post here what the book is and one of use who can obtain it will do it for you.
