Assuming you want this as part of a regular index, why not simply use the dates as the entry (in the Index markers) and the procedures as sub entries?
20091224 Procedure 3 Procedure 4 20100125 Procedure 1 Procedure 2 Baruch Brodersen -----Original Message----- From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of kgrace4715 at aol.com Sent: Wednesday, April 07, 2010 2:11 AM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Index with Dates? Is it possible to have framemaker create an index that sorts based on dates? I would like to be able to do this for the purpose of keeping track of revisions being made to a set of procedures that I am working on. In a perfect world I would be able to create something like: 2010 01 25 Procedure 1 Procedure 2 2009 12 24 Procedure 3 Procedure 4 I can get the procedures to sort properly based on the numbers but I don't see how I would be able to change the Group Titles. If someone has a better solution for being able to provide a mechanism for recording the revisions to a procedure i.e., Rev. 1 : Removed references to Fig 2. and updated weight of tank contents - Change made by Peter Cottontale. 12/24/2009. I am really trying to avoid doing this via a database because of the issues with managing the data eg., if the user changes the titles it has to be updated in the database. I really think that using cross- references for this is a better solution. Any suggestions are appreciated. K.
