Change formatting style on page numbers in index...
Hi,
I wish to change the formatting styles for the page numbers displayed in my concordance listing. Currently they are the same size generated by the index in the main document. Can someone tell me where to find this information in the archives or if it is even possible? Thanks in advance for your assistance. -Greg |

Assuming the indexes are using the same Index 1, Index 2, etc., styles, I
don't think there's any way unless you unlink the index and format it manually. -- Suzanne S.

Change formatting style on page numbers in index...
Hi Suzanne,
I appreciate your reply. I've taken the weekend to give some thought to your idea of formatting the index manually. I believe I am able to generate a catalog formatted mail merge file into an index provided there is a way to capture the page numbers for each indexed item in some way. Do you have any recommendations on how this may be accomplished? BTW, do you know if there is a way to tie a bookmark to a page number? If so, I may be able to map that to each indexed item. Have you any thoughts regarding these ideas? -Greg Suzanne S.

When you insert a bookmark on a given page, then you can insert a
cross-reference to the page number of that bookmark (a PAGEREF field). I don't know if this helps. -- Suzanne S.

Change formatting style on page numbers in index...
Hi,
Yes, this was helpful but it appears to be a manual process. Is there anyway to automate the bookmark process? In my case, each index item is associated with a unique number. I would have to manually mark 500+ entries. It seems there must be some way to use Mail Merge or a VBA macro. Any further thoughts? -Greg Suzanne S.

Until MS gives us a way to create hyperlinked indexes manually, that's the
best you're going to be able to do. -- Suzanne S.
