I am so fortunate to have found this forum...

Fact one: I am inherently, very, lazy.

Fact Two:

I need to build multiple indexes.

Index of people, Index of place names, Index of sources

Within each index there will usually be subdivisions:

USA:
New York
Brooklyn
Avenue J - page 31

Etc.

The format of some entries will be different from others. The above example is one type, (include one entity, the street name) but in the source index it will be:

Medical Journals
USA Journals
The Devil's Dictionary
Page 32 (of the DD), Citations (from the DD), - Page 31 (in my book) (Two entities, page of source, and quote)

Etc. Etc.

Can someone point me in the right direction for a really good guide to teach me how to navigate these waters, or being the Lazy person I am, a third-party tool to assist me.

I appreciate all and every help!

Susan

Edit:

I know what I am looking for:

I want a tool that will be a Word add-on or can integrate with Word.
It must have a tree view expressing the nested hierarchy of the Indexes.
It **must support drag and drop** so I can easily move around categories and subcategroies.
Not to much to ask for, right???
