Thanks, Scott -- FrameScript is probably not an option at the moment, but the search info is useful. I'll give this a try and report back a bit later.

A quick test shows me that the name of the referenced inset is visible as plain text within the binary FM file (FM7.2). I can't say for sure that this is 100% reliable, but I'll bet that it is. You should be able to do a text search (using a reliable tool .. not the default Windows Search) of the suspect inset host files using the filename of the inset. The only other way I know of would be with an FDK plugin or FrameScript that would crawl the directory structure, open each file and look for the inset .. I don't think that such a plugin/script exists, but it would be fairly simple to create. Good luck! ...scott Scott Prentice Leximation, Inc. www.leximation.com +1.415.485.1892 Pinkham, Jim wrote: > I've learned of an error in a text inset for one of our manuals.
