Well, we use index-see all the time in our own documentation. See for example: http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/manual-8.html --- F ... fo, output format name. See XSL-FO, output format --- I think that the error message means that you don't have: <indexterm>End User Reporting</indexterm> or: <indexterm>SOMETHING HERE<indexterm>End User Reporting</indexterm></indexterm> anywhere in your document. Note that you may have: <indexterm>End User Reporting <indexterm>Foo</indexterm></indexterm> <indexterm>End User Reporting <indexterm>Bar</indexterm></indexterm> <indexterm>End User Reporting <indexterm>Wiz</indexterm></indexterm> in your document, which implies that "End User Reporting" is merely a *heading* and not an actual *anchor* in your document. (I hope that I've succeeded in explaining the difference between a mere index heading and an actual index anchor -- AKA a leaf term.) In order to solve your problem, simply add: <indexterm>End User Reporting</indexterm> somewhere in your document.
