If your operating system is Windows XP, you could do it with a macro -- but they may not work in Vista. The directions are in the users manual, but these...

Okay, I've got a book coming in a couple of weeks that is going to be 400 pages in 10 days. (No lectures needed...I know it's stupid but I need to build my...
Instead of leaving the locator field blank, assign temporary page numbers for each chapter, using a code that doesn't appear anywhere else, just as 01%1-20 for...
First, I don't know why doing 400 pages in 10 days would be considered stupid, I have had to index that many pages in 5 days (many times, too), you just have...
I just got the following from a publisher I do frequent work for. How do I make Cindex do this? Or is it a function of my opening the rtf in Word? "One of our...
Ah, I had that same issue not too long ago. Here's how to do it on a Mac (if you're on Windows, look for something similar): When you do a "save as" and choose...

Collected wisdom: I'm starting a big project and I'm having a problem with the Page Down shortcuts. I want to enter the main heading and subheading and press...
There's no function to do that built-in. You can PgDn then Ctrl-1 to copy the last main heading. Or you could build a macro to do that key combo. ... From:...

Hi, Nora, Are you putting anything in the page field at this point? The beep may indicate that Cindex senses a problem there. To get rid of the beep, under ...

Hello - I use Macro Express, as it allows shortcuts in Windows programs generally. I would not be without it as it does speed up indexing considerably and is...
Pam, That's what I do, copy the offending diacritical to the search window. Alternatively you can try searching with partial terms, or a Boolean search of...
Cindex provides a modifiable list of words--articles and prepositions--that may be ignored in sorting *subheadings*. Am I correct in thinking that to do this...
Others may have a more direct route, but I do an abbreviation for this sort of thing: enter "aal" and get <al>- or enter "tthe" and get <The>. ... -- Best, Pam...
Hi, Note: The correct way to type this is <al > or <The > for it to appear with proper spacing in the final index. Thanks for the shortcut tips! Best, Naomi ...
I strongly suggest that folks *not* follow the advice below. The correct spacing is achieved for an abbreviation to have the correct spacing is <The>, as one...
AAArgh! I am wrong about this!. As Naomi wisely (thanks!) alerts, the space is needed within the coding. I should have learned this by bad example a year ago....
