Indeed, that was what I was doing. I did what you suggested and it worked
fine!

Actually, it was even stupider than that ... the index entry's page number
*did* match the page number that the entry was on. The problem was just
that because there is a title page, the DVI viewer thinks *that* is page
1, and the page with the number 1 on it, the DVI viewer considers to be
page 2.

Many thanks for the quick and helpful assistance!

The stuff in the wiki tips regarding doing your own indexes has a problem 
though, and this would still be useful for me.
