Sorry, my confusion - I was thinking there was an Index of Figures entry option (& there's not); however I checked my copy of the help file in FM9 & it says that you can rearrange entries on a list. Maybe that will help you sort the figures. Here's the text:
Rearrange information in list entries You can specify the order in which the parts of a list entry appear. For example, you can specify that the page number appear first, followed by the paragraph text. Choose View > Reference Pages, and display the reference page that contains the special text flow for the table of contents or list. Rearrange the building blocks. For example, to put the page number first, followed by the paragraph text, rearrange the building blocks: <$pagenum>?<$paratext>. ________________________________ From: Susan Curtzwiler [mailto:susa...@vmc.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 19, 2009 7:38 PM To: Jeff Coatsworth Cc: Susan Curtzwiler Subject: List of vs Index of Hi Jeff, In fact, my first effort I did use the "Index of" and as I said, all I got was a blank page, then I tried the "List of" option to see if I could find another way to accomplish the same result. So, obviously, I'm missing a step after using "Index Of" . I did some searches on the help files and in the FM 7.0 User guide and can't find anything. Sorry for the confusion, but, what am I missing? Thanks for your help.

The index one should generate an alphabetical list.

I followed the directions below and all I got was a blank FMKR page. Then I went to just make a list of figures as a stand alone file, not part of the book file. That worked great, I got the list. 1. Now, how do I alphabatize them. 2. Isn't there a simple sort feature like Word? Seems like then I could make the sorted list as a template and work thru the entire book. 3. Is their an easier way to work within the complete book file to get a full list of figures at one time? 4. Also, make a list of tables. I want to use this same technique to make a list of the titles from my TOC, and arrange them either by WI number or alpha to create a quick hyperlink file for users easy reference. Using FM7.0, Adobe Distiller 5.0, Vista Enterprise. Thnaks, Sue ________________________________ From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com on behalf of Jeremy H.

Sure. From the Special menu, generate a List of -> References (or an Index of -> References, if you prefer them alphabetical), and select Imported Graphics as what to include. HTH! -- Jeremy H.
