We create many documents which use acronyms. I am looking for a way for the
document to be searched, identify the acronyms and definitions, and place
them in a list or table at the end of the document.
 
Larry, I'm afraid that I can't be of help with your question, but in your and
your company's daily work, PLEASE identify the acronym with its first use in
the paper, ad, article, manual or whatever. I don't know what industry you
are in, but even in my own field I'm constantly being driven nuts by
acronymns or abbreviations that have not become household terms. Thanks.
 
Jim,
Defining the Acronym before using is a standard for our work. But I
understand your aggervation about people using an Acronym without defining it
first!
