Hi everyone: I've got Cindex 2 and can't figure out how create an RTF of a Cindex file which repeats the heading and subheadings for each entry. I want it to...

Diana, I haven't switched over to Cindex 2 yet, so I don't know if there's a setting for this style, but if all else fails, you can add hidden coding to the...

Hi Diana I have a client that needs this type of layout too - for use in Excel. I make a backup copy and using that, search for all entries with a subentry 1....
I like Jan's idea the best so far, but I'm wondering if it wouldn't be a better idea to just create every entry in the main heading line. FYI: This is a...

... If you want something to use in Excel, then why not save it as a delimited DAT file that can be imported to Excel?...
Save it in tab delimited format; you can replace the tabs with commas in Word. This produces a plain text file that will export into a database, and all your...
I have to submit the file as Word file. That's what's requested. Quick question: When I save in tab delimited format, do I set Cindex as unformatted and...

Not necessary. It exports as a plain-text file, and the headings repeat automatically. Just open the .tab file in Word, replace the tabs with commas, and...
Having everything in the main heading field is a much better idea than the one I suggested earlier. I'll remember that for next time--thanks! Pauline Sholtys ...

I am having a frustrating time trying to get this index finished, and now when I save my cdx file to Word as an RTF, the line count is way off. In Cindex I...
I don't pay attention to line count -- never could understand it clearly. So I'm just surmising here? Could yiou have changed the size of the font? Or even...
Why don't you just use the Cindex line count? Probably stuff just got compressed when you formatted, but that doesn't mean you can't get paid for lines you...

Mary, The extended codes work in Cindex. (I use them all the time.) So for an en-dash hold down the ALT key and on the numeric keypad type in 0150. Ina Ina...
Under Document --> Page references is a dialog box where you can insert any symbol you wish as the "connecting text" symbol. The default is en dash. You can...
Paula, Mary isn't talking about the page field. She's talking about ranges of dates. Changing the page preferences won't get her what she's looking for. On a...
Oops! Sorry. Ina's reply (for Windows version) is best. For Windows, the drop down is useful if you cannot remember the ALT numbers. Using the ALT and number...
