Re: Frame Maker deletes my changes when updating the index

Hi,
"continued" at top of columns: I think it is a way to facilitate the user's
browsing in the index, advising him that the column he's starting to read is
the continuation of the previous one. Moreover I saw them in the Chicago
Manual of Style index. You say it is not a standard indexing style...Could
you explain a bit more?

See / See also ref. : I thought they were links to create inside the index,
without any marker to put in the text. Are the <$nopage> markers just a
way to avoid the delete-all feature when regenerating the index?

I have a last question - perhaps it's obvious for you, but I am very new to
indexing : do you have good arguments to convince my boss the page ranges
are needed, in place of just putting a marker at the beginning of the topic,
whatever its length?

Thank you, and sorry for my English: I'm a stinking-cheese eater!
Yoann
