MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / December 2004Multiple Indexes
Dear Friends, I have a long DOC and want to mark entries for multiple indexes (Place index, people index etc.) I understand I can do this with the F key but is there a front end for this command so I can choose which index as I mark up the enteies? Maybe a third party product? TIA Raffi  SignatureUsing Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/ When you use Alt+Shift+X to insert an XE field, Word displays the field after you insert it, and you can manually add the needed switches at that time. But no, unfortunately there is no way to do this through the Mark Index Entry dialog. SignatureSuzanne S.

If you work through Field Codes and Options, you will get an interface where you can insert switches, but you'll have to type in the content of the field manually. If you're having to do this anyway (because the text you want in the index is not the same as the text in the document), you *might* find this more convenient, but I doubt it, given the number of mouse clicks required to achieve it and given that the dialog doesn't stay open so that you can mark other entries.
