> But it isn't option for TOC

... and you know what: the 2-column layout is discarded if you refresh the ToC
in Word then. Well - you can avoid that, if you select not only the ToC
entries, but also the following empty paragraph inside the "smart tag" frame -
making the 2-column section outside of the ToC field (and include that empty
paragraph, making even-number-of-entries ToC distributed badly); that also
might be "fixed" by following deletion of the extra paragraph ... but even that
is not enough: the manual paragraph right tab settings are also reset, and the
page number is moved outside of the visible area. Last resort is using a
different separating character instead of the TAB in the ToC - like space or em
dash - which is not the same.

So - multicolumn ToC is really a feature not supported by Word. FTR, there is
the list of field codes in Word [1], which includes ToC field codes.

My take is NOTOURBUG, following comment 5.
