Hi Tim, The Running Header/Footer variables cannot "see" the contents of previous files (unless your documents are structured). I would use Running Header/Footers with markers instead of paragraph formats and use FrameScript to automatically populate the markers with the correct text. If you are interested in an automated solution like this, please contact me offlist. Thank you very much.

Slager Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2010 12:41 PM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Running Headers FM 7.2 ----------- I have running headers that reference Chapter Title on left pages and Heading 1 on right pages. Some chapters have multiple files, so they don't include a Chapter Title and sometimes not even a Heading 1. I expected that within a book the variable would pick up the referenced paragraph from an earlier file. This doesn't seem to be the case, and I now have blank headers on some pages of the final document. How do I fix this? I couldn't find an answer in my Unstructured FrameMaker 8 book, so if you know it's in there, just point me in the right direction.
