Assuming the work instructions are controlled by a unique paragraph tag, that would be the default order if you generate a TOC for the book or file and only specify that type of tag. The links are generated automatically when you generate a PDF for the book if you activate the Acrobat functions

I'm not sure if you're looking for a generated list or just a list. If it's just a list, can you put it in a table, and sort on the number column? That way, if you create links for the doc names in the other column, the links won't be lost. Nadine --- On Wed, 5/27/09, Art Campbell

Hi All, Thanks again for your help. Frame 7 on Vista Enterprise Yes, I did take a small sample and used the table in Frame to sort by columns, that looks okay, but will this retain the links like a regular TOC, can I make this a generated list and remove the table borders? The titles of

If your WI name and number are in a single paragraph and the number follows the name, there is no direct way to produce a listing that is sorted by the WI number. With that document setup, the only choice would be to do a post-process procedure to rearrange the content and sort the list, and
