Hi Yves, I have found the best way is to use the tools that FrameMaker provides. I generate an APL, that’s an Alphabetical List of Elements and Paragraphs. I include the Tag element and generate the file with hypertext links checked.
After that I change the layout of the generated file’s main flow so that it has perhaps 4 or 5 columns. Then lock the file to make the links active with just one click. This makes navigation around the EDD really simple.

For example, I want to find an element named "keyword" in an EDD to specify its formatting rules. So, I need to find the following: [Element][Tag] Element (Container):keyword[/Tag] I do not want to search for text: "keyword", because "keyword" is a child element of many other elements, so I would find the text "keyword" in the [GeneralRule] element of many other elements. I can search for an element tag: "Tag", but I cannot search for an element tag: "Tag" which has the text "keyword". So, what do you do to find this element quickly?
