Richard, So even if the word 'compliance' is not in the text I can pick a location without marked text and enter it that way. Yes, now I can see that works. Thanks, Rich

Indexing concepts
I've read the index sections in the User Guide and did not see how to add a concept to the index. Here's a contrived example. A handbook for long distance truckers does not have a section on 'compliance' but the indexer knows that readers will look for 'compliance' or 'complying' in the index. The index should have a main heading and subentries something like this: compliance with full bladder rest periods speed limits trip log weigh stations weight limits Each subentry has a reference indicator which is found in the text and can be marked using Insert -> Index. How can the conceptual term be entered as a header? Rich
