Hi John, You can only do this "carry over" from another document with structured FrameMaker. It doesn't work with unstructured FrameMaker.

The issue is when the para text doesn't appear in the FM file, but does in a previous file that I want to carry forward.

The hierarchy is Chapter Title, Heading 1, Heading 2, etc,. The problem is, for the sections that follow Chapter Title that start with Heading 1, the variable displays blank. The question is, how to I get Chapter Title to persist until changed by the next Chapter Title?
