Index - how create range of pages
When creating an index, how do you do page ranges? Such as Pollution is the
main entry and Air is the subentry and the pages 12 - 15 deal only with air pollution. So how do you do that? I can do the main entry and can do the subentry, but to indicate a range of pages has left me stumped. I've followed the instructions to the letter through the HELP for Word, have tried using Word 2000 for Windows for Dummies and have met a dead end. Any suggestions. I am using Word 2003 on Windows 2000. |

Index - how create range of pages
You have to bookmark the range (select the pages and insert a bookmark),
then enter that bookmark in the Mark Index Entry dialog. -- Suzanne S.

OK, I did that, updated the index again and the page ranges didn't show in
the newly created index. What am I missing? I need more clarification, sorry. Phyllis "Suzanne S.

Yes, I did that. I assume that the radio button is the small circle in front
of the words "Page range." Phyllis Brown "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Did you select the radio button for "Page range" and then type in the bookmark name? -- Suzanne S.

Index - how create range of pages
The index should then be showing the page range you bookmarked. Have you
updated the index since changing the index entry? -- Suzanne S.
