I have looked before but not found any Frame built-in capability that did this.
BookVars is the best way to go here! I could not do without it. My most-oft-used add-on! :) Z -----Original Message----- From: framers-bounces at lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Nancy Allison Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2009 8:53 AM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Variables established at book level? Hi, everyone. Is there a way to establish variables in the first file in your book file and have them carry through all the remaining files? The appeal is, I establish book title, part number, and rev date variables on the cover page of my book; I then use those variables in the headers and footers of all the following chapters. It would be great to only have to set them up once, without even using the "Import Formats" function, through which I have come to grief more than once. Is there a way to change the variables?in the Cover file (the first file in my book.fm) and have them carry over into all the remaining?book files, without having to do anything more? I?know about the plug-in, "BookVars," but? I think someone mentioned a built-in capability in Frame along those lines. Or did I dream that?? Thanks. --Nancy
