Cross references work great for this. Just put a cross reference marker at the first place you use the text, like on a title page, then cross reference it everywhere you need it. You can also use a variable to insert the text in the first location, to make it even easier. Change the variable once and it is propagated throughout the document.

You didn't think a day would pass without my popping my head in with another question, did you? I'm on XP using Framemaker 8.0., working with documents someone else wrote. So, the original author has hand typed the name of the document into every.single.master.page (there's about 100 of them). Unfortunately (s)he got the name wrong. I can do a find and replace for the name of the document, but would it be possible to replace the hand-typed text with a cross-reference? Thanks so much! _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/clint.owen%40craneae rospace.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
