Index - want to remove entire index from document

E

ebarring

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) I know how to remove an index entry, and I can easily remove the index from the last page of my document. But I cannot remove each tagged index entry from the document without doing it individually. In a 77 page doc - this will take too long. Any ideas?

Use Find/Replace. Search for ^d XE and replace with "nothing". Note: Case
does matter.

You will need to fiddle around to get this working: spacing is critical
between ^d and the field name XE.

I you do not have any other fields in use in the document (and you're SURE
of this...) you can simply search for "^d" and replace with nothing. That
will rip out every field in the document (you WERE sure, were you??) :)

Cheers
