Yes - I'm the same guy who asked last Thursday if a TOC can be built. Many thanks to Aspose Support for quickly showing me how.
Nex Question - My users were used to an option of a TOC or an index. I see there is a a FIELDINDEX but I cannot find examples of it's useage. So...is there a way for me to build an Index in a Word document?

Hi
Thanks for your inquiry. Yes, of course you can do this using INDEX field. I think that the following code snippet could be useful for you.
Document doc = new Document();
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
//Insert INDEX field
builder.InsertField("INDEX \\e \"\t\"", "");
//Insert paragraph break
builder.InsertParagraph();
//Insert XE field
builder.InsertField("XE \"First entry\"", "");
//Write text
builder.Writeln("First entry");
builder.InsertField("XE \"Second entry\"", "");
builder.Writeln("Second entry");
builder.InsertField("XE \"Third entry\"", "");
builder.Writeln("Third entry");
//Save document
doc.Save(@"Test037\out.doc");
Also don’t forget to update field in the document (ctrl+A and F9).
Best regards.
Thanks Alexey.
I took the example and worked it into my VB.NET application. For the benefit of those interested, here is a translated VB example. "strWrite" is a variable containing my string to index. Note that the "\" options are different. You can experiment with any valid values. A Google search gives you many sites that explain how to build this string value.
Dim doc As Aspose.Words.Document = New Aspose.Words.Document()
Dim Builder As DocumentBuilder = New DocumentBuilder(doc)
Builder.InsertField("INDEX \e "" ""\h ""A""\c ""1""", "")
Builder.InsertField("XE \" & strWrite & "\", "")
