Comments.Text: Thanks @idiotprogrammer - that's certainly a possible last resort. Or maybe not so last :)

  You have to open the Reflow palette, where you get a list of all the articles making up the reflow layout - and the names matched the entries I was getting in the TOC. But to edit them you have to select them and click the edit button in the palette toolbar, there's no right click menu for this.
