   Unable to cast COM object of type ‘Word.ApplicationClass’ to interface type ‘Word._Application’.

   1. It´s at the end because of the Range . If you want it in the beginning,the rangeForTOC should be like this: rangeForTOC = doc.Range(0, 0);

6. hi you can place the table of content in the document then traverse the document and find that particular table of content then you can update it.

   object missing = system.reflection.missing.value;
   microsoft.office.interop.word.application wordapp = new microsoft.office.interop.word.applicationclass();
   object readonly = false;
   object isvisible = false;
   object filename = “d:\\document.docx”;
   microsoft.office.interop.word.document adoc = wordapp.documents.open(ref filename, ref missing, ref readonly, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
   ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);
   adoc.tablesofcontents[1].update();
   adoc.save();
   adoc.close(ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);
