What do you mean by a complete index entry? It doesn't seem to have to match the complete second level portion of the index entry, so I'm not clear.
No matter what I do, space, no space before the [, these still won't sort right under the stud and rollers first level entries. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Linda G.

He said this: Try adding a space before the opening square bracket of the sort order: studs:70 mm roller locations [studs:070 mm] studs:90 mm roller locations [studs:090 mm] The spaces don't affect the sorting. The importing thing to note is that the item included in the square brackets must be a complete index entry. Lester's example is a complete entry in the square brackets, so his example should sort correctly. Another common problem with re-sorting is that once Frame encounters the set of square brackets, it stops parsing the entry. That's why you can't have entries that look like this: studs: 70 mm[070 mm]: roller Instead, the re-sorting should appear at the end: studs: 70 mm: roller[studs: 070 mm: roller] Hope this helps.
