Phantom tag in an index Cheryl Landes 12/15/2008 8:08:01 AM I am troubleshooting a 400-page manuscript composed in Word that has an extensive embedded index. The index is currently in the editing phase. There is a See also reference that displays in the compiled index, but when we search for the tag to delete it, we cannot find it. How can we find tags that compile in the index but do not show up in the manuscript? All of the chapters were created in one file. This is not a master document. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Having done that, display Hidden text and search for ^19 XE "Smith:John" \t" (substituting the actual index entry for "Smith:John"). -- Suzanne S.
