To work around this problem, use the following sample Visual Basic for
Applications macro, which performs the functionality of recording AutoMarking
indexes:
Sub MarkIndex()
Dim sConDoc As String
sConDoc = "C:\My Documents\My Concordance Document.Doc"
ActiveDocument.Indexes.AutoMarkEntries sConDoc
End Sub
Note that "C:\My Documents\My Concordance Document.Doc" should be your
concordance document path and file name.
For more information about concordance documents, click Contents And Index on the
Help menu, click the Index tab in Word Help, type the following text
concordance
and then double-click the selected text to go to the "Mark index entries" topic.
If you are unable to find the information you need, ask the Office Assistant.
