I know this is a little off topic, but it is so funny that I think you will appreciate it. My all time favorite cartoon strip is "Raising Duncan" It is about...
Hello Group, Here is a maybe silly question. I have a second hard drive in my computer, an external hard drive, and two little flash thingees hooked up to...
What you are asking to do is to "mirror" a directory. I haven't investigated properly, but a quick Google finds rsync-mirror but I don't know anything about...
I guess I misunderstood something. QuicKeys will work with any kind of files since it works at the Windows level. But I'm sure I'm missing something. Sorry....
... I assume you were asking about using a QK macro to automatically save a Cindex file to several locations? I have no desire to do that. Instead, I have...
This is something I have not come across before. This current project is written by 6 authors, but there is no designation of which chapters were written by...
... Unless you are doing a separate author index (or have been requested to include all cited authors in the main index), just ignore these references unless...
This is exactly the information I was looking for, thank you so much Sonsie. I guess what confused me was not only the sample I gave, but how often the authors...
I've just been informed by one of my clients that they are offering 25 cents on the dollar for outstanding invoices. They were recently bought out by another...

I think I will do just that, thank you so much! I was following Sonsie's advice of when to enter authors, but as I get into the last chapters, the authors...
Shouldn't one inform (also, or perhaps most importantly) the *new* company -- that is, the one to whom the copyright for the book has been transferred -- that...
ADVANCE NOTICE: The Twin Cities Chapter of ASI invites you to our annual meeting. Date: Saturday, October 15, 2005 Location: Couer de Catherine Center, College...
This seems like a pretty trivial question, but it's one of those things that the more I think about it, the more I confuse myself: if you're indexing a book...
Just my 2 cents, but here is a suggestion - I don't know how correct this is though! Smith v. Jones (Mary) Jones (Mary), Smith v. I know the parenthesis aren't...
I received a message from my editor this morning, and I have shared it with a couple of my indexer friends, but I feel so good about it, that I hope you will...
You should probably check with the editor. I sometimes do legal books that have separate case indexes and I am not required to double-post. I would invert them...
Please make any responses to me off list. I would appreciate hearing what experiences anyone has had with Transaction Publishers; specifically regarding...
I thought IU members might like to see the following response I received from this client: "Thanks for the email Charles. I'll be sure to use your site again....
