Is it possible to auto-change page numbers in a manual/handbook?
I am updating a document regularly, with page numbers changing quickly from
the numbers on the index. Is it possible to link the indexed numbers with the page numbers in my document? |

They ARE linked (assuming you created your index using the normal methods).
You need to update: ctrl-A, F9. "Michelle" wrote in message ... I am updating a document regularly, with page numbers changing quickly from the numbers on the index. Is it possible to link the indexed numbers with the page numbers in my document? |

G'Day Michelle,
Word will allow you to create a TOC and/or an Index that can automatically update it's Page No's... See: http://word.mvps.org/faqs/numbering/...gExplained.htm for a thorough treatment. -- Regards, Pat Garard Melbourne, Australia _______________________ "Michelle" wrote in message ...

Did you create the index by typing it all in? Don't do that!
Look in the Help for topics about "Create an index", "XE field", and "INDEX field". They'll help you create an index that automatically contains the correct page numbers. -- 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.
