Pam, it makes a difference in that it reduces the number of entries that have to be searched. Compressing brings together the duplicates into a single entry....
I'm creating a Names Index and tried, for the first time, cutting and pasting the refs into a Cindex file. I've entered the page numbers and separated the...
... Well you probably are right, you can't do this in Cindex all at once. Hopefully there's some way you can group these together. Then I'd make up a macro to...

Thanks for your suggestions, Deborah. I just realized that the references arrived as a Word document (it hadn't been typeset, hence the different fonts). If...
I have an entry thus: Figures (numerals), 123â€"125, 700, 704. See also Numbers and it's being flagged by the reference checker for an X/XA error, meaning...
To go back briefly to the duplicate entries problem, what I've noticed is that if the duplicate page number is the same as the number at the beginning of the...
There is no reason why Cindex or any software would know that the word numerals would be synonymous with the word Numbers. The parens may also influence the...
... That's not the point. All Cindex has to know is whether or not the target, "numbers", exists. It doesn't care what it means. Nor does it care about parens...
That first number looks different to me when filtered thru the other messages answering this thread. How about seeing what happens if you delete that first...
The target looks like this: Numbers abbreviations for, 493 [and a bunch more subentries] The point isn't even what the target looks like. It's that Cindex ...
... In that case, I have had a similar problem. Cindex objected to things that, to all appearances, were correct. I didn't try swapping ref types like you did,...
Seems as if I may have stumbled into a bug. I'll write to Frances. Thank you, everyone, for your suggestions. If anyone still has any ideas (those of you...
Hi, Perhaps this is old hat...but... I just learned of another feature to use when editing my index to find orphan sub-entries using Verify cross-references ...
... I've seen this sort of error message as a result of having entered both a see and a see also reference to the same target. Only one shows up in the full...
I just got/installed the latest update to Cindex 2.0 (via the automatic update notification), and it appears that the 'always 12pt font' problem has been...
... I think mine showed up when I tried to open Cindex. The first time I clicked cancel, but the second time I told it to go get it. So no, it didn't flash...
I did click on the install right then, since I hadn't started working. But you can also install it from the Indexing Research website downloads page. Carolyn ...
That's awesome! Thanks, Naomi. ... Cheers, Carol Roberts http://www.RobertsIndexing.com http://www.ArtWanted.com/CarolR Please do not use this address in mass...
Thanks -- that's probably something like what's happening. I reported it to Frances, she had her programmer look at it, and they're going to work on a fix for...
... That's not the cause in my case. For example: C++ See also programming languages [bunch of subs) programming languages [bunch of subs] This yields a X/XA...
Hi everyone, I wanted to pass along a problem I encountered after uploading the 2.0 update (I'm on Windows XP). I've already reported it to Indexing Research...
The same problem has happened to me. After typing the first 3 characters of certain entries (with autocomplete on), the cursor suddenly jumps to the page...
... This has happened to me too yesterday but I wasn't slowing down enough to isolate what exactly was causing everything to dump into the page field. So it...

I believe that deleted records have something to do with the problem, so when you transfer the records into a new file, the deleted records stay behind and the...
