How to sort an index in Word
I have done an index in a presentation, all works fine, except that the index
cannot be sorted according to the numbers. I have the choice of Paragrph or field 1 in the sort menu, but if I choose Number in the Type menu it doesn't work. What am I missing here? -- Many thanks, and have a good day Ursula A. |

How to sort an index in Word
What you want is not an index but a TOC; see

How to sort an index in Word
thanks, and I did do that TOC, and now I only need to find a way to sort
according to the page numbers and not the titles. Does anyone have a clue what I could be overlooking here? -- Many thanks, and have a good day Ursula A. "Suzanne S.

How to sort an index in Word
A TOC is automatically arranged in page number order. If yours is
alphabetical, it is an index, not a TOC. -- Suzanne S.
