The way your index looks and behaves in the viewer is controlled by the properties assigned to it. You can customize your index by changing its properties. For example, you can select a secondary window for displaying topics that reference the keywords in your index.
The properties you can assign to your index depend on the type of index you are creating.
Index file keywords: If you are only working with index file keywords for non-binary indexes, you can customize the fonts used to display the keywords from the Index tab in the HTML Help viewer.
Merged indexes: If you are merging indexes (creating binary indexes) from other Microsoft HTML Help files (.CHM files), you need to select the Binary Index option because merged indexes are saved in binary format.
Topic keywords: If your index includes topic keywords, you can only create a binary index. The Binary Index option is automatically selected when you select topic keywords as the type of keywords to add.
From the File menu, select Project Settings.
Click the Index tab.
Assign the properties you want to use with the index.
Click OK and compile the project.
