    Default How do I create multiple indexes in InDesign CS?

    I have a book for which I want (i) a names index and (ii) a subjects index. Is it possible to do this in InDesign CS 3.0 on Windows XP Professional? How? Any help gratefully received. Thanks.

    Will a Table of Contents in alpha order do your subjects index for you?

    Another trick I've heard of people using is to add a "top" layer to their index which in your cases would consist of "Names" and "Subjects" and then index everything at the second and third level. This sorts the index into the two and you can use the top level style to make headings.
