Thank you. That proves *I* am doing something wrong. To be certain 
that it was not Word malfunctioning, I reinstalled Office 2000, but 
so far have the same results on *this* computer.  Then I tried it on 
my laptop, creating the document, with an index in the front. Saved 
it, shut down, and rebooted. Opened the same document and the index 
is indeed there!

So that means something is different on MY end, but hanged if I see it!

Oh well, the document is 90 percent done now. (yay!) Just some minor 
editing to do on corrections a few of us left off. We might as well 
as close this thread.

Thanks, everyone.

Robert
