There is, but it's a truly disgusting work-around :-)

Headers cannot be included in the table of contents because they do not
exist on a particular "page", so Word cannot resolve a page number for them.

You really need to put the headings in the document and copy them into the
headers, not the other way around.

A) Type the heading and assign it the style Heading 1.
B) Now add a STYLEREF field in the header, and specify that it looks for the
most recent Heading 1 style.

The text of the heading will appear in the running header.  And since the
Heading is now on a page, which has a page number, it can be included in a
normal table of contents.

To do it the other way around, you need to:
1) put a bookmark around the header, then
2) use a cross-reference to bring the text into the text of the document on
the page where you want it,
3) assign it a style to bring it into the Table of Contents, and
4) set the style to have white text that is only one point high, so the
reader will not see it in the text.

I told you it was ugly...  Don't do it :-)
