Sorry, but your assertion is not correct according to Karen's original query (emphasis added:
I want to change all instances of a phrase using one paragraph tag to another tag. I do not want to change all instances of the phrase (it occurs using other tags), nor replace the current tag with the new tag (both tags remain in use). The target phrase-tag combo occurs hundreds of times. Is this possible through find/change or another automated method? Using FM 11. According to what she wrote, she specifically *does* want to change the tag. It's the tag and not the string she wants to change. This should be possible in FrameMaker because it is possible to use Copy Special to copy just the desired new paragraph tag and do a replace "By Pasting" to apply the tag to the paragraph with the found string. The difficult part is finding just the instances of the string that are in paragraphs with the old tag since Frame does not support searching for both a tag and a string in the same process. But it shouldn't be *that* bad to search for the string, visually check the paragraph tag in the status bar, and manually choose either "Change & Find" to perform the retagging or "Find" to skip to the next instance of the string. -FR ________________________________ From: Framers <framers-bounces+docudoc=hotmail....@lists.frameusers.com> on behalf of Robert Lauriston <rob...@lauriston.com> Sent: Wednesday, June 21, 2017 5:41 PM To: An email list for people using Adobe FrameMaker software. Subject: Re: [Framers] Search for text + tag? Karen doesn't want to change the paragraph tag, she wants to restrict the change to instances of the string that are in paragraphs of a particular tag. _______________________________________________ This message is from the Framers mailing list Send messages to framers@lists.frameusers.com Visit the list's homepage at http://www.frameusers.com Archives located at http://www.mail-archive.com/framers%40lists.frameusers.com/ Subscribe and unsubscribe at http://lists.frameusers.com/listinfo.cgi/framers-frameusers.com Send administrative questions to listad...@frameusers.com
