I guess the table of contents would need to be sorted or have some sort of
index itself to be useful... but that's another topic!

Yes.  Change the index line to:
 
index subjext.40 #
 
That will put the subject in the first 40 cols and the item number following
that.  Or perhaps you want something like index subject.45 #.5 date.10
Etc. Etc.  Just remember that # is the item number and you can specify any
fields and optionally their length in any order on the index statement.
