Hi, Yves:

First, save the index file, so you can use File > Revert To Saved, while 
you experiment with this approach; or, create an index from a single 
chapter, for quicker results than from a whole book:

On the index's Body Page or Reference Page, click in the paragraph model 
for each index level except the Level1IX paragraph (Level2IX, Level3IX, 
etc.) Then, use the Pagination properties page of the Paragraph Designer 
to set the paragraph's property to Run-in. Update All, then regenerate 
the index. You may need to modify the default punctuation to 
semicolon+space (; ),  or whatever your style guide requires.

Look up run-in paragraph properties in the online FrameMaker help for 
details.
