Re: Indexing Tool for Separate MS Word Documents

[William Meisheid <wgm -at- SAGELINE -dot- COM>]

Have you tried creating a separate document that uses RD fields
to join the XE index fields from each of your documents into one
index? This requires you to embed the index entries as XE fields
in the original files. Create a separate index document.

Enter your index field entry such as:

{index \c 2 \h "?A?"}

You can use the field elements to format the index as you see fit
or edit it after building as you see fit.

Then enter the RD fields to include the index entries from each
document such as:

{ RD "c:\\VismaLog\\GetStart\\Source\\GetStart32.doc" }

I don't think there is a realistic limit to this approach. I hope
that helps.
