Just a note that I changed the title of this thread from "Its been a long, hard, day..." to "Setup the structure of my very complicated index which is broken up into sub-indexes".
The titles have two purposes:

• Draw attention of the volunteers who answer questions. The title tells the person who may have an answer whether or not the question is one on which he/she has knowledge and can contribute. A title that tells something about the question gives you a better chance of getting a quick answer. It also saves the time of the volunteers.
• Help people searching the forum find answers. People looking get a list of threads and the title can help them pick the ones most likely to contain an answer to their own question.

See:

• How to post a question on this MSOffice forum (specific to this forum)
• How to Ask Questions In this Forum (to get the best and quickest answers)
• Basics: Getting help - best practices

This is not to say that you are not having a long, hard, day! I don't want to minimize the pain of the experience. The conundrums found using Microsoft Word can do that. It is just that question titles are important to get the best answers.
