Indexing problem...

[Phillip]

I don't know you folks and we don't know if you know the answer to this
question, MS Word GURUS.  It involves orphan index page numbers
appearing in an MS Word index.

We've tried to remove these entries and their corresponding XE tags, but
the regenerated-updated index still picks up the old page numbers for
the removed index item/entry and continues to display them in the "new"
index.

Is there a fix for this problem that perhaps involves a hidden file such
as a concordance file?  Does Word generate a hidden standard index file
that contains a 2-column table for index entries and corresponding page
numbers? If so, where is it so we can KILL it!  Or, we would at least
like to modify it to force it to show what we want...

Phillip:

By my count, you've now spammed six separate newsgroups with the same
question THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED! Please stop wasting everyone's
time...

See http://word.mvps.org/FindHelp/Posting.htm for some badly needed
netiquette information.

It's got to be more than six (I think I've seen it at least seven times,
maybe eight).
