> Dear Yvonne,
> > >
> > I know of two dedicated software programs for indexing--Macrex and
Cindex.
> > Unlike indexing programs embedded in various word processing programs,
they allow a great deal of
> > flexibility and discretion. If you begin indexing word by word, for
> example,
> > and decide to switch to a letter by letter system, the program will make
> the
> > change for you. If you are doing a lot of indexing, the cost (was about
> > $500.00 four or five years ago) is well worth it.
> >
> > I believe that the American Society of Indexers publishes A Guide to
> > Indexing Software, written by Linda Fetters. They may have a website.
> Their
> > email is asi@well.sf.ca.us.
> >
> > I would also recommend that you read Indexing Books by Nancy C. Mulvany,
> > University of Chicago Press. It's really well organized and is an
> excellent
> > guide through the many decisions you will be making as you index.
> >
> > Good luck,
