Hi again Thanks yet again to all who replied. After testing the different approaches the following was the winner: (Credits go to Bob Lies and Tonya McKee who came up with similar brilliant solutions)
1. Create a new Marker. I chose to call it "Reviewer". 2. For each topic (in my case about 400), insert a marker with the reviewer as marker text. Include a semicolon after each reviewer. You can insert multiple reviewers in each marker. Separate with semicolon. John Smith: John Doe:;John Smith: 3. From the book file, add an "Index of Markers" including the new Reviewer marker only. I chose to add the IOM as the first chapter in the book. However in order not to mess-up the page numbering I made sure that the first "real" chapter in the book started on page 1. NOTE: It took a couple of minutes until the FM book actually noticed that there was a new marker available. I imagine it would be possible to speed up the "detection" of the marker by closing and opening all files in the book, including the book file. 4. On the Reference page of the IOM file, replace the variable definition of the default ReviewerIOM paragraph format from <$pagenum> to <$paratext> <$pagenum> This means that the topic will be listed in the index. I also included a tab in the paragraph format reviwererIOM paragraph format, The tab was included between <$paratext> and <$pagenum> 5. On the Reference page of the IOM file, replace the comma in the SeparatorsIOM line of text with a soft return (shift-Enter) and remove the leading space before the 1: 1, 2-3 1 2-3 6. On the Reference page of the IOM file, hide the GroupTitlesIOM paragraph format. I tried to remove it but I failed. :-) It just reappeared. I solved this by setting the font color to white. (quick and very dirty) 7. To make the IOM look nice, edit the master pages as well. I changed the page size of the IOM. It does not have to look like the rest of the book as it is not part of it. 8. Update the paragraph formats level1IOM and level2IOM to your liking. 9. The result looks like this when I am done: John Smith Topic A ......4 Topic B ......6 Topic C ......7 John Doe Topic A ......4 Topic D ......8 Topic E ......9 And this is exactly what I was looking for. And finally I quote Bob Lies: "The disadvantage of any such method is the effort to add the markers. The advantage is there are tools for managing markers, including the built-in search/replace that would allow you to locate and change the name of reviewer as project personnel changes." And I might add yet another advantage - a pretty happy bunch of reviewers!
