Really? I didn't find a "sort"-field in lyx, not even in lyx2.0.svn. Am I missing something? However, if you (Ted) still have the problem, note that it's actually ordinary LaTeX behavior and not really a LyX problem. Index entries are just ordered according to the characters you write, even if they are formatting characters. If you want to use a different ordering, you can use \index{keyw...@\texttt{keyword}} The expression before the @ is then the expression that is used for sorting. The same works in LyX with index-entry keyw...@\texttt{keyword}. If you use this formatting frequently you can define a newcommand in the preamble of the form \newcommand{\indextt}[1]...@\texttt{#1}} and then you enter in the lyx-index just \indextt{keyword}. -Sebastian
