Subject:Re: Better to index in Word or Frame? From:David Neeley <dbneeley -at- oddpost -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Wed, 17 Dec 2003 14:38:45 -0800 (PST)
Chalk up one vote for Frame with IXGen. I've done indexing in Frame alone and in Word--and I prefer Frame to Word even without IXGen. Those whom I trust who have used IXGen, however, sing its praises as making the task much simpler and more enjoyable.

Assuming the same level of ability of the person, in your
opinion, which is the better tool to create a better index
(easier and more thorough)? Word documents in Word or as FM
documents with FM/IXGen.
