Dear Framers: I posted a plea for help with an indexing issue of book. I have used the indexing function of FM for years with no problems. Now whenever I update my files I get a white screen and the application hangs. I have tried other files with the same result. I have reinstalled with a full uninstall, still no joy

(If I'm mistkane here and is a Frame feature, I apologize. I've copied my .ini file and plug-ins from so many versions of FM I no longer know which tool goes with what plugin.) So if I were you, I'd make one pass through the tables and add a row to each table using a keyboard macro; then I'd make a second pass through the tables, select the right-most column, and paste the width from the clipboard. It might save a few mouse-clicks. Carol At 11:00 AM 7/21/2012, you wrote: >have a two chapters in a guide that I am currently working on that have >over 100 tables each.

Shlomo's toolbar also has "Add column to right" and "Add row below" buttons -- very handy. Highly recommended for these and many, many other features. Richard G.
