What is the structure (layout) of your concordance file?

I'm not sure... I created a table that listed all of my recipe titles.

When I run the Index from the file it skips and misses names..so I am not
sure if I am doing it correctly. Hoping to find a quicker way then going
through each page and marking it.

I would suggest that for a cookbook, you might be wanting a Table of
Contents, rather than Index. Unless that is what you are trying to do is
create and Index of all of the ingredients.

The best way to create a table of contents would be to apply a heading style
to each recipe title.

I have tried the Table of Content function, but it does not alphabetize the
recipe titles. The index is the only way (I think) to actully get the order I
am looking for....is there a way to alphabetize the TOC and have it update
without unlinking the TOC?

The short answer to that is no, but you could save the TOC field as an
autotext entry for ease of re-insertion. The following macro will unlink and
sort the TOC. When you wish to make changes that will reflect in the TOC,
replace the TOC with the field from the autotext entry and run the macro
again.

Sub SortAllTOC()
Dim oTOC As TableOfContents
For Each oTOC In ActiveDocument.TablesOfContents
oTOC.Update
oTOC.Range.Select
With Selection
.Fields.Unlink
.Sort
.Font.Color = wdColorBlack
.Font.Underline = wdUnderlineNone
.HomeKey wdStory
End With
Next oTOC
End Sub
