How do i get the index to read out of order. And also add my consultants. For instance:

G0.1
A2.1
etc.

You need to add a parameter to your sheets, something like a simple integer field, and then set your G sheets to 1 (for example), A sheets to 2, etc. and then have that field hidden in your sheet index, and sort the index by that hidden field first, and then by sheet number second.

You can create another sheet parameter and sort the schedule by it first (then sheet number).
G -> 0 ; A -> 1 ; etc etc...
Make sure it does not appear in the schedule (make it a hidden field).

I'd recommend numbering those parameters you add 100, 200, 300, etc. instead of 1, 2, 3 ...
If you use 1, 2, 3 ... and your consultant adds another out-of order sheet, you're stuck. If you use the hundreds, you've got flexibility in between.

Maybe its just from my days programming in old GW basic when you had to number every line....
