Word 2007: index cross references
How do I insert an entry into an index like "Bunnies, see Rabbits",
that is not followed by any page numbers, such that it will appear in the right alphabetical place when I update the index? -Butterfly |

Word 2007: index cross references
Place the insertion point where you want the index entry. On the References
tab, click Mark Entry. Specify "bunnies" as the "Main entry." Then select the radio button next to "Cross-reference" and type in "rabbits." Click the Mark button. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Butterfly Bill" wrote in message ...

This creates a field in the document that looks like this: { XE "Bunnies" \t "See Rabbits" } When the Index field picks up this XE field, it will create the entry with the cross-reference instead of a page number. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

I didn't know if it was going to want to put in the number for the page I was inserting the code on. I also didn't know where in the document to put it at first, butI just put them all at the end.t |

Well, of course you can put index entries that don't display a page number
anywhere in the text. However, it might be a little easier to keep track of them if you place them next to the item that you are referencing (that is, next to { XE "bunnies" } in this case). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Butterfly Bill" wrote in message ...
