Hi Darren,
Instead of a list of paragraphs, you could use FrameScript to insert a
custom marker in each of these paragraphs. The custom marker would have the

Hello fellow FrameManiacs,
In an index of paragraph titles;
I WANT:
Heidi.
Heidi Chronicles.
Heidi Fleiss.
Heidi Ho.
Heidi Klum.
I GET:
Heidi Chronicles.
Heidi Fleiss.
Heidi Ho.
Heidi Klum.
Heidi.
Do I need to monkey with the SortOrder of the IgnoreChars?
TIA,
DJ
