Herbert,

I did not use a table, but the multicol packae to create two columns.

I'll remove that effort and go through each main and sub heading inserting
the index command for each one. For concepts that are not specific words,
I'll find a word on that page to mark, then change the text to the concept
rather than the word.

I suppose there are too few books created using LyX to justify development
time for incorporating an externally-created index as a professional indexer
would do. These professionals use any one of three proprietary indexing
tools that are very expensive but provide publishers with an index to add to
non-fiction books.

Thanks,

Rich
