Do you mean that you are using:
{PAGEREF _Toc366490238 \h \# "( )"}
I think you would want:
{PAGEREF _Toc366490238 \h \# "(#)"}
Note that Tables of Contents using the TOC field are much easier to construct and maintain. However, I'm not sure they can do what you want.

I'm afraid you can't customize the PAGEREF fields added by the table of contents. Any customizations will be lost the next time you update the TOC.

Not fun.
I expect it could be done with wildcard replace but that is more than I am able to do.

To add comma as the separator between an entry and its page number, you can add the \p "," switch to the TOC field code and then update the TOC.

Is that comma separator option supposed to persist after a TOC update? When I tried that, it seemed to disappear after I would update the TOC.
