Default what is a Word 2003 - Table & Contents "Subentry"?

Hey Taz,
I just noticed that that Lorrie person was talking about TOC's, and not
Indexes.
My bad,
Bennie
P.S. I'm still looking for an actual written instruction that shows exactly
where in a document that you're supposed to put an XE subentry field code. I
know now thru experimenting on my own, but there has to be an actual document
describing the process somewhere. I'm noticing that a lot of this computer
information written about in various articles is simply assumed by the
author, or passed along by word of mouth--and thus certain steps get glossed
over by all of them in their writings--because none of them really know of
the step's origins, and they don't want to be seen as not knowing. Who does!

I'm not sure where this conversation originated, but just for clarification:

"Main Entry" & "Subentry" are aspects of an *Index*, and have nothing to do
with a Table of Contents. A TOC can have multiple *levels* (based on Heading
Styles for example), but that is a totally different matter with different
terminology.

Hey Lorrie,
This is Bennie over at "Subentry-Word 2003." I noticed that you asked the
same question that I did about "Subentries." Getting a straight answer to
such a simple question is like pulling teeth!
If you check over here, you might find the information that you sought way
back when.

"Subentry" underneath the word "Main entry" i have looked all of the place

know what "subentry" means & how to use it?
