#Additional comment#
 
Option sorting is also useful for another reason.
The default sort order (alphabetisation) in a alphabetical index is
word-by-word.
Occasionally, we want letter-by-letter sorting, as shown here;
http://www.anindexer.com/about/alph/alphindex.html
On MsWord can use the option to sort order.
To force letter-by-letter alphabetisation, if a entry (or subentry) contains
a space, insert a semicolon the end of the text for a entry,
and follow it by the text with all the spaces omitted. 

For example:{ XE "data records;datarecords" }.
Capitalisation affects the sort order, as does white space.

- Word-by-word -

soul
soul brother
soul food
soul kiss
soul mate
soul music
soul sister
soulard crab
souletin
soulful
soullessness

XE "soullessness"
XE "soul brother"
XE "soul food"
XE "soul kiss"
XE "soul mate"
XE "soul"
XE "soul sister"
XE "soulard crab"
XE "souletin"
XE "soulful"
XE "soul music"

- Letter-by-letter -

soul
soulard crab
soul brother
souletin
soul food
soulful
soul kiss
soullessness
soul mate
soul music
soul sister

XE "soullessness;soullessness"
XE "soul brother;soulbrother"
XE "soul food;soulfood"
XE "soul kiss;soulkiss"
XE "soul mate;soulmate"
XE "soul;soul"
XE "soul sister;soulsister"
XE "soulard crab;soulardcrab"
XE "souletin;souletin"
XE "soulful;soulful"
XE "soul music;soulmusic"

Very useful must-have option!
Kind regards
D.L.
