Thanks, Art. As I wrote to Fred, we are grasping for anything at this point - there are so many now-broken references and (of course) little time. We do use IXGen here, so we can give that a try.

Hi, all, I checked the archives and the power tools list, but didn't find anything. Does anyone of a plugin (or is this a job for Framescript?) that would crawl through a document and change cross references from a reference to a type=marker to type=paragraph? We have a reference guide that went from structured to unstructured, and now we have several thousand cross references that are looking for a marker that's not there. Surely someone's run into this. Is there any workaround?

table numbered lists in tables - can you define it?
Hi Frame gurus... I may have known this but forgotten. I checked the archives and the online help and didn't see anything there, so I'm coming to the folks who know. I have numbered lists that I need to convert to tables. Is there a way to specify that the numbered lists show up in the cells down-then-across rather than across-then-down? When I convert them now, the table order is: 1. | 2. | 3. | ___ 4. | 5. | 6. | and what I want is: 1. | 3. | 5. | _ 2. | 4. | 6. | Thanks in advance! -joanne Joanne Grey [EMAIL PROTECTED] Write Angleswww.writeangles.com Noble souls, through dust and heat\Rise from disaster and defeat\The stronger. -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow ___ You are currently subscribed to Framers as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send list messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://lists.frameusers.com/mailman/options/framers/archive%40mail-archive.com Send administrative questions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Visit http://www.frameusers.com/ for more resources and info.
