Nope. All those wonderful plug-ins will become available to me when I get a box that will run my copy of FrameMaker 10 (trip to local Apple Store to talk to a guru scheduled for March). Authors don't have any contact with FrameMaker, and I'm still using 7 for Mac.

And it did it all in a single step. I'm sure Rick is happy to read this ;-) Generally - and perhaps fortunately - my source material tends not to be table-heavy. The table that started this thread was one that I created here, as it's a convenient way of handling reference lists. Or would be, if FrameMaker 7 didn't suffer from the bug that strips xref markers when you sort a table. (Has this gone from later versions, I wonder?) -- Steve
