navPoint ID

So, I have a book that half the toc is not there. Somehow it disappeared during the conversion. I want to re-do the table of contents, but I am stuck on one element: navPoint ID

So the structure of the toc in the editor looks like this:

<navPoint id="e6b9b7f1-4d07-4035-b7cc-ecf312b63a1b" playOrder="50">
<navLabel>
<text>44: FRIENDS</text>
</navLabel>
<content src="9780440338871_95230_split_055.html"/>
</navPoint>

So I get the playOrder part, but where is this coming from: "e6b9b7f1-4d07-4035-b7cc-ecf312b63a1b"?

Thanks for any help!

Why not use the TOC tool ?

Well, I figured out that the navPoint ID is whatever I want it to be and that works.

I haven't tried the TOC tool, I was using the Editor and manually editing, but I'll try.

I don't really want to generate a TOC, because it already has one, but one that is missing more than half the chapters. I'll look into it and see if the tool will really do what I need it to.

If you have the markup in each file, the tool is a snap. It even allows you to ignore (hide) certain marked up entries.
In the book at each chapter top
<h3> chapter 1...
<h3> chapter 2...
<h3> chapter 3...
<h3> chapter Last...

Run the tool. There is the NCX all done (4 entries in this example)
Then if you want the same as an Inline (HTML), run Tools:TOC:Insert Inline... (that uses the NCX for its data)
