I always hand-construct a TOC into the Word file (don't let Word generate anything... don't let anyone else either) right before the start of the story (Prologue/Chapter 1 or whatever) then link each entry back to the h1, h2 or h3 headings. I like the look of it, readers don't seem to mind, Amazon is happy, and my clients don't mind the space it takes up in their Sample. However, if the TOC is incredibly long (I just did one with more than 60 chapters) I put a short 'TOC' in the front, a Contents in the back and link them. Amazon hasn't seemed to mind, but then this doesn't happen often.
