AboutSuzanne S. Barnhill Expertise I've been using Word for Windows since version 2.0 (1992), and the more I learn
about it, the more I realize how little I know. But I may know a few things
that you don't, and I'll help if I can. I answer many questions every day in
Microsoft's peer support newsgroups and as a result have been awarded the
MVP (Most Valuable Professional) designation by Microsoft Corporation. You
may be able to find the answer to your question at the Word MVPs' FAQ site or at my own Word FAQ site, so please check those first! Please, no questions about VBA (macros), Registry editing, networks, or complex merges, as I have no experience with these aspects of Word, nor do I have any experience with Word for the Mac.
Experience I have a master's degree in classics (Latin), which is surprisingly helpful, though I no longer teach. The things I am proudest of: Having raised two children to maturity, both Merit Scholars, both college graduates (one a philosophy major!), one Phi Beta Kappa (from Harvard!); having been made a Paul Harris Fellow by my Rotary club; having been designated a Microsoft MVP.
Education/Credentials B.A. (Latin), Agnes Scott College, 1966; M.A. (Classics), Emory University, 1972.
Question I am using MSWord 2007 in Vista. My Concordance Index process works fine now, except, for page ranges. How do I get Index to recognize page ranges, e. g. if same topic appears on consecutive pages.
Many thanks for your assistance,
Jerry
Answer This requires inserting XE fields manually and including a bookmark. The first step is to select the range of pages to be included and insert a bookmark. Then select any instance of the word to be indexed and press Alt+Shift+X to open the Mark Index Entry dialog. Select the "Page range" radio button and then select the appropriate bookmark from the dropdown list. Make any other desired changes in the dialog and click OK to close.
