Index new words
Word 2003:
I have created a document and marked all the words I want in the index by using Alt+Shift+X. I have now been requested to add more information to this document. Is there a way for new information to be automatically added to the index? For example, if I have already marked the word "Hello" and now add "Hello" to the new information on a new page, is there an easy way of including the new "Hello" in the index without 're-defining' it? Thanks for any help you can give. Sincerely, Gary Brown -- HTH, Gary Brown If this post was helpful to you, please select ''''''''''''''''YES'''''''''''''''' at the bottom of the post.

Then right-click the index and choose Update Field. -- 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.

Index new words
That's not what I said....
The XE fields from previous marking are all still there (if they weren't, then the Index field at the end would display an error message complaining that there are no entries). All you need to do is add more XE fields by marking just the new words (or new occurrences of existing entries), and then update the Index field.

I was hoping that there is some function for not re-creating all new indexes. No luck, huh? Thanks again.
