UIM Search Indexes

["Bleddyn Williams" <bleddyn@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi I've created a number of UIM panel groups containing help text. I've
also set-up a search index for these panel groups to allow the user to
search the information and to view individual topics selected from a
full list.

When the user displays one of the panel groups by pressing the HELP
key and then presses the F11 key to access the search functions, the
window they see lists all the panel groups in the order in which they
were added to the search index. This is not particularly coherent.

I've noticed that the IBM-supplied search indexes organise their help
topics in a hierarchy. If a topic is shown with a "+" beside it, the
user is able to expand that topics to see the sub-topics that exist
beneath it. In turn, some of these may be expanded until they
eventually find the topic they want to view.

The problem I have is that I can't find out how I can specify the
required hierarchy when I create my search index and to do this would
make the documentation far more accessible for the user.

Thanks Bleddyn
