For more information about the support options that are available and about how to contact Microsoft, visit the following Microsoft Web site: To work around this problem, use the following Visual Basic for Applications macro, which performs the functionality of recording AutoMarking indexes:

   Sub MarkIndex()
      Dim sConDoc As String
      sConDoc = "Macintosh HD:My Docs:My Concordance Document"
      ActiveDocument.Indexes.AutoMarkEntries sConDoc
   End Sub
				

Note that "Macintosh HD:My Docs:My Concordance Document" should be changed to your concordance document path and file name.

For more information about concordance documents, click Contents And Index on the Help menu (or on the Balloon Help menu if you are using a version of the Macintosh operating system earlier than 8.0), click the Index button in Word Help, type the following text and then click Show Topics. Select the "Mark index entries" topic, and click Go To. If you are unable to find the information you need, ask the Office Assistant.
