I think this might be the fastest: Apply paragraph outline levels to the heading styles that you want to appear in the TOC. Then use the usual "\o 1- 3" in your TOC field to generate the TOC.
Can you send us the field codes for the TOC that is not working? (Right click on the TOC. Select Toggle the field codes.Copy the info between the braces.) We might be able to help you figure out what is not working.
