Follow-up:
The Word2007 list of Field Codes does indeed list "\f" for creating multiple indexes, but there are no instructions on how to use them. Experiment 1: Mark some Index Entries and insert \fa, \fb, \fc, \fd in the first few. Click "Insert Index." It inserts an index holding every index entry. Display the field code and add \fa to the code. It doesn't pick out the \fa index entries. Experiment failed. Experiment II: Mark some Index Entries and insert the \f-codes in all of them. Click "Insert Index." It claims "No index entries found." Display field code and insert \fa and Update Field. It makes an index containing just the \fa entries. Experiment succeeded. (I didn't check whether the \ switches need to be in alphabetical order -- the Index field automatically includes \c for number of columns and \z for language. I put the \fa after the \c and didn't try putting it first.) On Monday, April 24, 2017 at 11:53:10 AM UTC-4, Peter T. Daniels wrote: "Word2013 Bible" has one paragraph on creating multiple indexes in a Word file (using the switch \fa, \fb, etc., in each index entry). It doesn't say what happens when you insert the index -- do the indexes come out in the a, b, c, order of the switches? Can they be reordered within the Index Field? But more important: Was this an innovation later than Word2007, or will it work in the older version? No reference I have on Word2007 mentions such a thing (I don't have Bible), but none of them are at all helpful on anything involving fields. |
