= SUMMARY =

When running the supplied macro INDEX.MAC in MACRO.GLY in Word version 5.00, unwanted characters and format changes may appear in the document. The unwanted characters are usually a “Y” and a “D”. This problem occurs when there are extra paragraph marks in the supporting document of keywords or phrases. The macro is trying to read the paragraph mark as an index entry.

The document containing the list of keywords must not contain extra paragraph marks at the beginning or end of the list. Each keyword or phrase must be on a separate line, followed by a paragraph mark.
