Interestingly, I can't click on *anything* in Sigil CV. I have to hold down the Shift key and Drag to Select, and THEN cannot choose "Copy" from the "Edit" menu. I have to right-click and choose Copy. Everything I have selected turns green, and then I can Paste. The really weird thing is that triple-clicking on a line in CV highlights the line, but then, when you go up to "Edit" and "Copy," the highlighting disappears.

A S&R in CV can easly correct that as those areas are no longer paragraphs with a paragraph style, but Headers with a paragraph style.
I don't know what this means, theducks. What is S&R? Search and Replace? I'll have to continue to learn HTML, of course, and had one heck of a boost of confidence from you and some other posters here. What I would like to know is what command or symbol or...wot-evuh would enable me to have gotten rid of random Calibre-formatted Indent mistakes (my Word-generated XHTML document was after all generated by Calibre, and thus, I assume, first-and-foremost a Calibre, not a Word, formatted document). Before I began working in CV, and was working in BV, for aesthetic reasons, I Entered/Added an empty line above each chapter heading (in fiction, or at least in my mystery, simple successive numerals are the headings). I did not realize that neither Calibre nor Sigil "like" empty spaces.(Maybe the fact that I tried to select an empty line for my headings for the TOC was why I was never able to generate a TOC?)

But I'd like to know what command or symbol or whatever would have allowed me to remove Word's "First Line of the Paragraph" Indent--which was not generated by Word but randomly by Calibre. My headings in Word are always centered after chapter breaks. In the Calibre-generated EPUB, when I deleted the empty line at the start of each new chapter, believing that this empty space might have been the source of the "NO TOC FOR YOU! problem, some of the chapter heading/numerals just jumped up a line to the Center of the first line, but some jumped up to the Center of the First Line of Paragraph Indent (again, when NO SUCH indent had ever appeared in the Word document). I tried to understand the code that starts each chapter, but it is so arcane, that in my haste, I gave up.

If this is too minute or off-topic a question, please ignore. I'm just soaring tonight, having finally accomplished what I begged friends to do for me, only be told that I should "learn HTML.: So !!!

(Where would I post a question about how non-Apple-owners can upload their EPUBS to ITunes--if that is possible at all?)
