I created an index, but I don't want them alphabetized. I need the titles
sequenced by the order of the page numbers. Thank you. |

I've got a similar problem. I've already got a TOC at the beginning of the
doc and need a cross reference (index) at the end of the doc. Each paragraph is numbered such as TG 1, TG 2, TG 3... TG 10, TG 12... TG 100, TG 102... etc. My problem is since the index alphabetizes these, they end up looking like this: TG 1 TG 10 TG 100 TG 2 TG 20 TG 200 Aside from adding zeros the the entry, I can't figure out any other way to get them in numerical order, instead of alphabetical. Any suggestions? "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: For which see http://www.ShaunaKelly.com/word/toc/CreateATOC.html -- Suzanne S.

Thanks Suzanne...
Now that I've used a concordance file and replaced my entries, this is what happens. (TG 173) (TG 1{ XE "TG 1" }7{ XE "TG 17" }3{ XE "TG 173"} Then the index shows that TG 1 is on Pg 1, TG 17 is on pg 4, and TG 173 is on page 27 although the are all referencing the same paragraph. What am I doing wrong? Thanks so much for your help. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Afraid not, no. -- Suzanne S.

Since I have never used a concordance file, this is all Greek to me. Perhaps
someone else can think of a workaround, but I don't see any way to get these numbers to sort the way you want. -- Suzanne S.
