Indexing - Global refresh/deletion of index marks

R

Ray Cleere

I'm using MSWord 2001.

I'm trying delete existing index marks in a particular document, o
which there are hundreds.

There does not appear to be a facility in the insert/index and table
dialog to facilitate this.

Updating index marks via a concordance table (automarking) is appendin
new index marks to existing index marks at the location - it does no
do a total refresh.

Using edit/find&replace also does not appear to facilitate location o
index marks. I think I have tried all options at this dialog, and i
combination with changes made at the tools/options/view/edit or sho
levels.

The index marks themselves are non-printing characters obviously, an
using the show/hide button displays the index marks (which are no
hidden at the font level), but they do not appear in the specia
[system ^ characters] drop-down list in the edit/find dialog.

Anyone any ideas on how I can go about doing a total refresh of m
index marks directly (using a table), or a total delete of existin
marks, maybe via some new functionality in later versions of word or b
pointing out something I haven't yet tried with my existing ver?

Thanks
Ray
