I'm new to Cindex and trying to work out the following: how do you add a heading to an existing group? __________________________________________________ Do...
If you're talking about the groups created by 'find', just duplicate the appropriate entry and change the main heading. Groups are temporary; they go away as...
Hi everyone. I am indexing a book about Japanese films, and I am including cross-references from the directors to the titles of films that are analyzed...
Hi Terry, Yes, there's an easy way to do this. For the cross references that should have "see also" in roman type, simply put a tilde right before the "see,"...
If you have your 'see also' cross-references configured to appear as the first (or the last) subheading, then by inserting a tilde before the 'see also' you...
You're right. It does! Now, I just need to insert {ZZZZ} before my 'see also' to make sure it appears as the last subheading. Many thanks for the tip,...
Cool--I didn't realize it would do that! I've been changing all those "see also" references up to the main head by hand in Word. Good to know! Scott Smiley...
I run into this all the time. My global fix for this involves two steps: 1. In the cross-ref setting window, I set the "see" and "see also" prefix style to...

Okay. I now have a Word template file name D LgTrim Index Temp copy.dot from the publisher. (And I'm sure some of you know who this is!) I want to put it in...
... I know who you mean, but I'm not sure what you are asking. Are you asking where to store the downloaded template, or how to apply it to your index?...
Dick, I'm working on a Mac.... I dragged the file D LgTrim Index Temp copy.dot into My Templates in Word, then saved a test index in Word, then went to Tools...
... Sounds the same as a PC. There is more to the story. You need a file called "Indexer Template Specs.PDF". You get it from the user site. You need to know...
I've used Cindex since, since . . . . hmmmm, it was in DOS and came on a disk-- and when it sorted it went ka-chunk, ka-chunk, ka-chunk, 100 sorted, ka-chunk,...
... Oh wow, Paula. I just read that as "on a Mac Classic." Which I think was my first Mac! We've come a long way, baby! Hm, I wonder if "Classic" is an inside...
I think we are all working too hard and are loopy!! Yep, I remember Mac Classic from years ago. That was when I was using a Unix system and swore "I will never...
Hello Collective Wisdom I'm desperate! I have a large file, and have been making a lot of macros. Now, all of a sudden, Cindex totally freezes up when I try to...
I haven't used macros before, but I now have some steps that I would like to automate as much as possible. I am surprised to see that my recorded macros are...
If you really need to use macros extensively, I would recommend you buy one of the fairly inexpensive macro programs (which will work with Cindex), such as...
Hello everyone, I need help thinking of an efficient way to handle an indexing project. I've been asked to prepare an index to a supplement to a series on ...
A few months ago I really impressed myself by writing a few macros to insert some symbols in a scientific book and insert accent marked letters in a name heavy...
Here's one example: For many years I did a massive annual index to the Proceedings of a municipal agency. Many entries were quite lengthy, often repetitive,...
Charles, Wow, thanks for that example. I am a total neophyte when it comes to writing macros. I know that law firms, for example, use them quite extensively. I...
I have never "written" a macro by hand. QuicKeys takes care of that for me. I just have it record the keystrokes I want. As for learning, I am not one of...
Charels, "Awesome" (as my nine year old niece would say)! Thanks for the explanation. I wish I could think of a reason to write a lengthy macro. The...
Laura, You asked about saving macros and from what you wrote about it's clear you mean macros and not Hot Keys or Abbreviations. Something's goofy with your ...
