However, I have not been able in Calibre to create a working TOC from either the rtf or the html files.

Can you please direct me to step-by-step guidance on how to do this, preferably using the Calibre GUI?

If it's necessary for me to use the Calibre Command-Line interface, can you suggest where I should go for beginners' instructions as to how I should use it?
I have a calibre tutorial that kind of goes over how to create a table of contents.

Basically, I just use < h2 > tags for all the headers I want in my table of contents.

There are a lot of screencaps.
