Index ?? Word 2007
I'm a new user working in Word 2007. I'm working in a very large and growing
document that needs and Index badly. I've figured out how to Create one and how to mark the selected text individually but I'm wondering if there is a way to set up a "Master List" of thing you want marked. This would ensure that I don't miss an important entry. As always, you're help is greatly appreciated -- Siuan |

Index ?? Word 2007
Another question... In an earlier post someone recommended using AutoText to
add custom index fields. This sounds helpful but I don't understand what AutoText is. Thanks again. -- Siuan "Siuan" wrote: I'm a new user working in Word 2007.

Index ?? Word 2007
Hi ?B?U2l1YW4=?=,
I'm a new user working in Word 2007. I'm working in a very large and growing document that needs and Index badly. I've figured out how to Create one and how to mark the selected text individually but I'm wondering if there is a way to set up a "Master List" of thing you want marked. This would ensure that I don't miss an important entry. Well, it is possible to use what's termed a "Concordance" to generate an Index. This is a two-column table of "search term" and "index term". You create that in a Word document, save it, then reference it via the "AutoMark" button (click "Insert Index"). Most professionals don't like this method of creating an index because not all entries found are relevant. I see it's not mentioned in the Word 2007 Help, either...

Index ?? Word 2007
Hi ?B?U2l1YW4=?=,
In an earlier post someone recommended using AutoText to add custom index fields. This sounds helpful but I don't understand what AutoText is. AutoText is a store of "useful items" you'd like to add regularly to your documents. In Word 2007: Select the thing you want to re-use. Insert Tab, TExt chunk, click QuickParts, choose "Save selection to Quick Part gallery". In the "Create New Building Block" dialog box, give it a name, select the Gallery type, assign a category, if you wish, add a Description, choose where you want to save it, and how you want it inserted (Options). Since a lot of these things are new, you may want to experiment a bit until you decide what settings are ideal for you.
