Hi, Dick, Actually, American English-style punctuation (as opposed to British English-style) would put the comma inside the ending quote mark. FYI. --Terri ...
Grrr... The index I am working on includes lots of newspapers, books, etc. which begin with The. Although I have placed angle brackets around "the" those...
Nora, Sounds to me like you're in simple sort. Check to see if that's the case, and if it is, select either word-by-word or letter-by-letter sort and see what...

Open a blank index. Copy the group into it, add and save. Probably there is a more elegant way, but this is what came to mind. [Non-text portions of this...

Hi, How did the Cindex workshop go at the national meetings? Any great new shortcuts or working methods brought up that come to mind? Will there be some sort...
Is there an easy way to export the labelled entries when saving as an rtf file? In other words I would like to be able to see the labelled entries highlighted...
I think we recently discussed this...and came to the conclusion that labelled text will not show up in an rtf file....alternatives might be to bold the text...
I worked round this by collecting the labelled entries in a temporary group. I then recorded a macro to add an asterisk to each entry (about ten at a time) and...

I'd suggest copying the text from the ones that _are_ sorting properly and pasting it into your 1950 entry. My guess is that there may be hidden text (like a...
