Bilingual document needs bilingual TOC

Hello! I have created a bilingual document using a 2-column table in landscape mode. I would like to now create a TOC (the document is 150 pages), with the Heading 1 and 2 entries from the left column in a cell above the document body.

I have tried a lot of things, and none of them quite work - instead of the TOC entry and leader dots fitting in the cell, it is as though the entry wants to be the full page width.

Is there a way to change the default formatting of the entry so each entry and page number will fit in the 5" wide cell? I will also do the same process for the right hand column, but it will not be difficult as the two columns have different formatting styles (Header 1 on left, RHeader 1 on right; Header 2 and RHeader 2, etc.), so whatever process I use on the left will be done on the right.

Thanks for your help in setting this up.

You will need to modify the TOC # styles as they govern the formatting of the Table of Contents
