Why when I update all fields in the TOC, does it delete my hyperlinks within the same word document? The TOC links still work.

Is it possible to send them to the bookmark as described while also attaching an affiliate cookie to their IP? Maybe have the affiliate offer open in a separate tab and the bookmarked part of the hyperlink take them to where I want within my page? Is this possible? Does this even make sense to anyone?
