Hi Joseph - To do XML authoring in FrameMaker, use DITA-FMx: <http://leximation.com/dita-fmx/> - To convert your unstructured FM files to XML, use mif2Go: <http://www.omsys.com/dcl/mif2go_main.htm> We also have a Captivate Flash movie that shows you how to do it. If you're interested, just contact me off-list.
