------- Additional comments from scriptaman...@openoffice.org Wed Aug 25 20:41:20 +0000 2010 ------- Hi, Some considerations about #52088 1. IMHO,It's a bug :-) 2. The Issue 104107 is a duplicate (sub-entry=key)? 3. Cambridge University Press vs. OpenOffice.org? ;-) Please, see page 3 of the following papers http://authornet.cambridge.org/information/productionguide/hss/XML_indexing_v2.pdf http://authornet.cambridge.org/information/productionguide/hss/Guide%20on%20Making%20an%20Index.pdf Kind regards D.L. ------- Off topic ------- Alphabetical index of OOo Writer unfortunately has more than a problem. The following are only some of the essential functions required for effective indexing. * Cross-referencing index entries (Issue 104691) * Formatting to specific entries (Issue 106199) * "Skips" footnotes/endnotes (Issue 32392) * More alphabetical index (Issue 6401) * Manual Page-range (Issue 94565) * Delete all index entries (Issue 20599) * etc... In some cases are only small changes, but that would increase greatly the capabilities of the index tools. These features are not optional. When you write an alphabetical index there are rules to follow. At least in the fields of law and humanities, a good index is essential! Might be a good idea to ask some advice to a professional indexer. The "our" competitor - MsWord - does not have these limitations (cf. Word97!). I'm convinced that improving the Indexing Tools - along with the bibliographic project (OOoBib) - OOo Writer could become an excellent word processor for scholars and technical writers.
