Any ideas?
EDIT: The epub version does the same thing...

Hi JuryDuty,
Sorry for the delayed response, I seemed to miss this post.
Anyhow getting to your question. You probably have two TOC because your using the "Insert TOC" button on BookCreator. This is going to create an HTML linked TOC that is embedded in the eBook.
Bookcreator also sends calibre commands to dynamically build TOC.
The reason for this extra Feature is that there are some book formats and eBook readers that do not support dynamic TOC --as in TOC that are not embedded in the eBook. Some people believe it is good practice to generate eBooks using both TOC.
The reason you see two TOC is that you created one, and the other one is created by calibre and tacked on to the end of the book.
As long as you use the BC chapter and sub chapter methods you do not have to create the TOC manually it will be created when you create your eBook.
My preference is to still embed the TOC, for the reason given above, and because I like to see the TOC in the front of the eBook.
