rayf Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 When indexing a name in the text such as "Alexis Clairaut", I also want to index the same person, but in the format "Clairaut, Alexis". In this case Alexis is not a sub-topic, so I can't use that method. Can I do this in Publisher fairly simply? Or do I have to type the variation in the text in a format that will not print, or is hidden behind the main text, and then index that non-printing phrase? Another example would be "Margaret River". How do I get it to appear in the index as "Margaret River", as well as "River, Margaret"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Insert multiple index marks, and set each up as you want it. This allows one term to have as many index entries, and as many formats as you want. E.g., here I have 3 index marks before Margaret, with 3 separate index entries: multiple-index-entries.afpub Old Bruce 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.
