Sorry to be such a pest but now I have another question. The index I'm working on right now is in letter-by-letter sort. All looks good except the following: ...
I agree with Connie. However, there are occasions that I force the sort to word order for selected terms in a letter-by-letter sort (required by most of my...
Hi Mary, The Cindex sort is precisely correct. Cindex ignores articles, conjunctions and prepositions--unless you tell it to do something differently. In the...
Thanks, all, for the advice. I did check with the editor and the publishers (scholarly type) wants the strick letter-by-letter, although the editor and I...
I was asked if I can use Cindex to format the index so that it looks like this: Abel a shepherd.................................Gn.4:2.........14 why God may...
... I think there is no way to get Cindex to do this directly, but what I would try is to embed "XX" (or any unique string) at the end of your "Gn.4:2",...
Don't know what keys I hit, but the application quit unexpectedly. When I reopened it, it said that it was missorted and asked me if I wanted it to sort. I...

Nancy-- Depending on how often your settings save automatically, you may indeed have lost some work. (Mine is set to save automatically every 10 minutes, ...
... That sounds similar to a problem I have had on a couple of widely separated occasions. The crash had mangled the last record. When I tried to get going...
I have four records starting with the Greek letter chi (χ), and they aren't sorting well: χ3-based Kerr switch χ2-based sampling in ... χ3-based sampling...
Do you have 'evaluate numbers' selected in your sort options? Currently the numbers are being ignored in the sort. Carolyn Weaver ... From: "Ed Rush"...
Hi, I have mine set to save every one minute. Is there some reason why one should not have it set to the shortest time period just in case? Best, Naomi...
In Windows, I got a proper sort by figuring out the needed order and having the hidden entry: {chia}, {chib}, {chid}, {chie}, and so on. ... -- Best, Pam Rider...
... It probably affects battery use for laptops. I would guess that every time the program saves, the hard drive does stuff that uses battery power. So when...
... chia: a thing that grows grass for "hair" chib: probably a type of fish chid: past tense of chide chie: a type of aura We missed one: chic: stylish Cheers,...
Probably not, with today's very fast processors. But I distinctly remember the Cindex-DOS days, when saving large files could significantly slow down response...
... Hah! Thanks for that, Carol. Or, if I weren't so amused by it, I might say "chil out!" -*"*-.,,.-*"*-.,,.-*"*-.,,.-*"*-.,,.-*"*-.,,.-*"*-.,,.-*"*— Ed...
I have mine set to save every time I close the window. I don't work outside of my home, so battery power isn't an issue for me. By typing carefully I minimize...
Hmmm.m. I'm refering to the setting in preferences for 1 to 99 minutes. I'm not sure what you are referring to..."every time you close a window." Naomi...
As I've understood Cindex for many years, it always saves the index every time we close it--there's no setting for saving only when you close a window. If you...
Yeah, there is actually. It's under "editing" in preferences. But it probably refers to the record window, not the entire document. In the upper right, it...
Ohhhh, I thought the reference was to an entire index, not a record window. Maybe, just maybe, the always discard is if you want to make an index sort of like ...
... I think the person who posted that was talking about the whole index. I forget who it was, but she or he may be confused about what that setting does (and...
Right you are! I "save a copy" with a number: MyGreatIndex copy1 MyGreatIndex copy2 MyGreatIndex copy3 I do tht because perhaps, on copy 2, I eliminated ...
Another little quirk of which to be aware is if you use the "Save backup copy" option and save the backup to another location with the same file name, either...
... Better yet, do that after every chapter, plus after any large operation (e.g., range-changing) that you REALLY don't want to have to do all over again. ......
