Default How do I conflate index page numbers in Word 203?

The other day someone was looking for stuff FrameMaker does better
than Word wrt indexes and cross references -- this is one of them. You
can have it compress page ranges like this.

Unfortunately no one seems to have implemented Chicago style for page
ranges:

233-46
233-38
507-9
500-509

John McGhie, in "How do I generate an index in Word?" gives one way to
mark
multiple pages for the index :
"If you place the same index tag on each page of the topic, Word will
automatically conflate the page numbers."


My index results do not reflect this. Instead they put every page # with a
comma between. I'm aware of the bookmark option, but would like to know if
this other way conflates the numbers.


Thanks
