atw: Re: Paragraph numbers not page numbers in an index

Geoff, I had a look around in the Word help about index switches for
paragraph numbering but there is not a switch that does that. I haven't had
time to explore the page numbering options available. There might be a way
to do it using bookmarks or seq fields but YUCK! That would be a complete
nightmare...

Dear austechies,

 

Is there a way (or a way with some plug-in) to create an index in MS Word
(or Framemaker) where the reference is a paragraph number not a page number?
[Think of a legal text (or the AGPS Style Manual) where every paragraph is
numbered: 1.2.1, 1.2.2, 1.2.3 etc. I want the index to read like this: torts
3.14.2 not torts 21. Here, the index marker torts is on page 21 in the
paragraph numbered 3.14.2.]

 

Cheers
