Hi Lynne,

If I read your message correctly, FM9 has a function in the FDK that can
import filter-by-attribute settings.  Please confirm.  This will solve a
major problem for us.

Thanks lots,
Diane

Diane,
   I'm not sure what you mean here. It is true that importing formats from
one document to others (including those in a book) does not import the
definition of attribute expressions used by filter-by-attribute; nor does
it apply the filter used in the source to the destination documents.
However, at least in FM9, the FDK can do so.
