Table of contents gets Enid upset and cross (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

index

'table of contents' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'enid upset and cross' is the wordplay.
'upset' indicates an anagram.
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'cross' becomes 'x' (an X is a cross).
'enid' anagrammed gives 'inde'.
'inde'+'x'='INDEX'

'gets' is the link.

(Other definitions for index that I've seen before include "Alphabetical listing of names, topics and page numbers" , "Pointer" , "Concordance" , "Catalogue" , "List of contents in book" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
