Hi,

sorry Adam, I don't mean the position of the TOC page but rather the
position of page numbers *inside* the TOC.
I would like a Table of Contents approximately to look like that:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

  3    1. Introduction
19    2. Literature review
43    3. Methodology

etc.

That is page numbers (3, 19, 43, etc.) appear on the left hand side of the
page, followed by a fixed space and then by the entry, instead of the
default LaTeX TOC where page numbers appear on the right hand side, like
that:


TABLE OF CONTENTS

1. Introduction    .    .    .    .    .       .   3
2. Literature review    .    .    .    .     19
3. Methodology    .    .    .    .       .    43


Hope now is more clear.

Pierfranco
