RE: Exporting the paths of graphics used
Hi Susan,
Be careful when sorting a table. All hypertext markers
get deleted. When you to use the sorted list as a
"hyperlink file" this procedure is not a good idea.
I guess, an alphabetical list of paragraphs is best (as
Richard Combs already suggested).
You can add such a file for a single file (Special | List
of | xxx) or for the whole book (Add | List of | xxx).
If you add such a generated file for the book, you must
update the book to actually generate the list.
In the online help it's described how the list can be
formatted ("Formatting lists and indexes"). This will
always take effect after you have updated the book.
Best regards
Winfried

RE: Exporting the paths of graphics used
You must have used the "List of" menu item instead of the "Index of" one that Jeremy suggested. The index one should generate an alphabetical list.

RE: Exporting the paths of graphics used
Hi, I'd like to join this email about making a list of figures in alpha order. 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.
