Some months ago I created an index from the reuters collection. I converted the SGML files to XML using a tool that I've found somewhere on the net (just google for it), then I parsed the files to create the index, using a standard DOM parser. If you have problems parsing the SGML files I think you should consider converting the files to XML. Otherwise post a sketch of your indexing code to get some help.
