How to create a glossary in Alphabetic Order with Microsoft Word 2013?

[mh2]

Hello All,

 

Another issue bugging my creativity is to create a glossary automatically in Microsoft Word 2013. I know we can create a table of contents automatically:

But what about a glossary showing things in alphabetic order?

I've googled on this, but nothing seems to be automatic: https://www.google.pt/search?q=table+of+contents+word+2013+automatically&oq=table+of+contents+word+2013+automatically&aqs=chrome..69i57j0.6423j0j7&sourceid=chrome&espv=210&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8#es_sm=93&espv=210&q=glossary+microsoft+word+2013

 

Does any one has a macro that allows to generate a list like that? i.e. (keyword1, page number, keyword2, page number).

I know you can sort lists alphabtically in Word (Open Office too) by using the Sort Tool. Since I don't use Microsoft Office I'm not sure to sort by paragraph or word.

Sort a list alphabetically

 

In Open Office you don't need to use a bulleted or numbered list. You just select Tools>Sort

Hi,

 

I found this - click here

 

It suggests that creating a glossary cannot be done automatically.

I had some classes of Vba but I'm not a coder at all. I was thinking that a nice Macro could do this or perhaps this could be a next great feature in Microsoft Office 2014 or so.

 

Well I will have to do it manually then :p

 

Thank you
