I may have missed something in this thread, but if you are using FrameScript, it makes the MIF snippet technique obsolete.
Rick Quatro Carmen Publishing Inc. 585-659-8267 rick at frameexpert.com *** Frame Automation blog at http://frameautomation.com You're going to have to script it. A MIF file is a text representation of a Frame file. Instead of importing the MIF file you'll probably need to write a script that will remove the formatting in the MIF file with your content and replace the formatting as desired. Someone can probably point you to a utility that will do this. I've started to do something similar in FrameScript, not too easy.
