Hi Joseph, I don't know of a plugin that does this. I am surprised that you are not interested in FrameScript. A FrameScript solution may be the best opportunity for you to get the exact functionality that you want. For example, I have written scripts that write FrameMaker data to Excel spreadsheets for reports, etc. See
http://frameautomation.com/2010/09/30/autonumber-problems/ If you can clarify what you mean by step 5, I will be glad to give you a quote for a script. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you very much.

Generate a count of all the insets. 2. create a list of insets, for each inset identify which book and FM file the inset is in. Also provide the file path to the inset. 3. ability to screen out insets i don't want to see 4. ability to screen out duplicates. ie if "inset1" pops up in the book the multiple times, i might only want to see it first the time. 5. ability to do 1-4 with conditional build expressions (minus providing the file path.) 6. ability to do this with graphics. Is there a plugin out there that does this? I am not interested in framescript though. I just want to take a file, drop it into my plugin folder, and start using it. Basically, I am looking for some robust reporting capabilities that gives me an idea about what state my documentation is in.
