Exporting word into a SKY-readable format

[Heather Pendley]

What is the easiest way to make a very long Word index SKY-readable? The index is indented, and when I imported the txt file to SKY and tried to map the fields, subheadings and locators do not show up; just main headings. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

In Word, save it to a text file.   Actually, the most pain-free method is to send it to Kamm Schreiner or Maria Sullivan . Both of them convert Word files to SKY ones.

Hello Heather,

You can use IndexConvert, I could do it for you, or you could use another conversion service.
