Re: WordPerfect --> AppleWorks

"It might be better in the long run to figure out how to generate
indices in WordPerfect."

     That is the right way for me to do it, but I only know one
programming language and it only runs on the Apple II. It is possible
to do some of the formatting of the file using WordPerfect's macros,
but that is very tedious and time consuming.


"From what I understand, the hard part in
indexing is choosing and organizing your entries, not the mechanical
part that a computer can do."

     The files come to me containing just the index entries with page
numbers. What I have to do is arrange everything so that it is laid out
like a book index. The UltraMacros program that I wrote does all the
arranging fine. I just need to get the WordPerfect files into
AppleWorks on the Apple IIGS so I can run them through the program.
