Off the top of my head, I would copy them all into a new file...change all locators to 0...mark them all and start the new index. At the end I would delete all...

Maryann: Use the reconcile headings command in the Tools menu. Read the instructions on how to use it so that you get the result you want. Once you do it, it...

I assume what you did was a test file and you still have the original. Go to headings in the Document tab on Cindex. Click on sub 1 or sub 2 (whichever you...
Hi again, folks, Thanks again for your suggestions yesterday about bringing up subheads. I'm still testing, but it's going well. Now a new question. We've...
