I have a question about a problem I have encountered trying to create an
Index in word.
When I try to mark index entries, the Word dialog box displays the marked
word in the Main Entry field. However, in this document I am unable to see
the entry, the very top of the entry is visible in the field, but there
seems to be a "Space Before" in this field. I thought it might be from the
style used in the document, however, even deleting the Space Before from the
style does not change the result when trying to mark the entry.
Has anyone encountered this and can tell me where in the document I can
change this so the word I am trying to mark becomes visible?
