I can do it after the index is generated, but is there a way to use a style to do this when the index is originally generated? Thanks.

This one is in the Panel Menus product area. Alternately, download the free <a href="http://www.dtptools.com/kbsc/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Keyboard Shortcuts plug-in</a> and just type the word "index" (or whatever the feature name is in German) and you'll see all the relevant features. You can assign a shortcut there. Michael A: You can edit all the keyboard shortcuts with Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts. This one is in the Panel Menus product area.

I'm working at the moment on a PC with a German ID CS2. What I couldn't figure out is how the short cut "Shift-Control-Alt-[" to add multiple index entries at once works with the German ID CS2. I even switched the keyboard to US - doesn't work. My quesion now: Is there a way to access this command through the menue? I would save so much work! Thx, Michael Thank you Michael for sharing your knowlegde and skills with us und such a precise and light way!

The Help file doesn't specifically state the new limit, but the pre-release documentation indicates that the previous 100-document limit has been removed.

Suppose one has a list of index entries. Then through the use of ctrl+shift+alt+( one can index all words as once. But it's only the same as if one just clicks "Add" for each entry separately. What the question was I think is: "Is there a shortcut to "Add all" in the New Reference dialog" ? for the whole list at once ? Thanks Tony Hi,

I come back on Joris’ remark.

Suppose one has a list of index entries. Then through the use of ctrl+shift+alt+( one can index all words as once.
But it’s only the same as if one just clicks “Add” for each entry separately.

What the question was I think is: “Is there a shortcut to “Add all” in the New Reference dialog” ? for the whole list at once ?

Thanks

Tony
