Couldn't this be done in the MIF file with Find/Replace? I'm sure there's someone out there with a lot more MIF experience than I have who could speak to this option? (I have done a few large "fixes" in the MIF for other issues but only after a Frame expert from this list has offered guidance on how to go about it.)

Re: [Framers] Conditional Text Question FrameMaker 12
Hi Julie, I think this calls for scripting, as there is no way to redefine the current conditional tags to an already existing one. the scripting environment is included in FM since version 10. If there are enough tags it might be worth your time or budget to either do the scripting yourself or get an experienced scripter to do it for you. I am too busy but you can ask Rick Quatro. He knows his way around the FM scripting jungle. I am guessing he might respond pretty quickly to this message.

Re: [Framers] Conditional Text Question FrameMaker 12
Find some text tagged with Condition B. Edit > Copy Special > Conditional Text Settings Then Edit > Find Change; Select Conditional Text from the Find list, move Condition C into the "In" window, select By Pasting in the To list, then Find & Change All. Or Find, then Change, rinse and repeat if you want to be sure you're changing the right thing.

[Framers] Conditional Text Question FrameMaker 12
Hello, I was wondering if anyone has a solution for the following scenario. I have 3 different conditional text tags in one of my files. One of these conditional text tags was created and applied inadvertently and should really be applied as one of the other 2 conditional text tags. For Example this file contains Conditional Text A, Conditional Text B, and Conditional Text C. The information tagged as Conditional Text C should really be applied and only tagged as Conditional Text B so that I can delete the Conditional Text tag, Conditional Text C. Is there an easy way to do this? I tried to Edit the conditional text tag but that didn't work.
