Is there a quicker way to mark a subentry than to type it into the Mark Entry
dialog box? Thanks! |

I'll let you decide whether it's quicker, but you can enter the field directly into the document without using the dialog. Type the field code like this: XE main entry text:subentry text Then select the whole expression and press Ctrl+F9 to make it a field. (Note that XE fields are automatically marked as hidden, so if you don't have the option turned on to display Hidden text, the field will vanish.) -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

I was going to suggest the same alternative Jay proposed, but, IMHO, it
requires even *more* typing than going the dilaog box route. Fact is, the only "quicker" technique is to pay someone to do it for you  -- Regards |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Vicky" wrote in message ...

To add to what you and Jay have said, however, one thing that can greatly
speed index creation if many entries much be created for the same term is to insert one XE field (by either method), Copy it, use Find to search for the next appearance of the term to be indexed, Paste, and repeat as needed. -- Suzanne S.
