[Framers] Problem with Creating Tables with different TableTitles in FM via MIF file.
HI Rick, Yes, that is the code used, or some variation of it. It works if the file is its own file (i.e. not split). If the file is split into the MIF template being called from the MIF with the text flow and Tbls then the table title is on its own (i.e. in FM I see "Table 1: " with no name for the table) - where/how does it get populated? Here is a copy of the beginning of the Tbls code: ( I can supply the code, but it's too long for here). #orly Adding next line with Table Format-this is not needed if I don't need the TableTitle populated. It pulls the format from the template MIF. If I copy the table, it even numbers them correctly, but I can't figure how to get text into them. The string below with the example Register Name doesn't show in FM. #Adding Table Title # Forces lookup in Paragraph Catalog. #even without this line, the table shows up in FM with "Table 1: " as its title > # end of ParaLine > # end of Para > # end of TblTitleContent > # end of TblTitle > #end of TblFormat > > # end of Para > # end of CellContent > # end of Cell #... it goes on to end the rows and cells properly. As well as end the Tbls. ___ 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

Is this what you have for the title? # end of Notes > # end of ParaLine > # end of Para > # end of TblTitleContent > # end of TblTitle -Original Message- From: Framers On Behalf Of Orly Zimmerman Sent: Thursday, April 30, 2020 3:31 PM To: framers@lists.frameusers.com; framers@lists.frameusers.com Subject: [Framers] Problem with Creating Tables with different TableTitles in FM via MIF file. HI All, I'm trying to create a simple MIF file that contains tables and can be read via FM. I need this structure for my engineers, so that they can export data in a pre-defined table format. So I have the structure of the table (basically copied the structure given by one of FM's Sample MIF files (included with the FM installation)). In any case. Then I actually read the MIF manual and was able to create the table and a short body page by creating 2 MIF files. - One MIF file is used as the template file with all my paras/chars/tables/variables/master pages/ etc defined. (It's very long) - The other MIF file includes for now, one table (it will include all the tables in the Tbls) and the Text Flow. The table is built basically from a table header and body rows. It has an "include ( template.mif) to call the template file (so that this MIF file is "only" about 300 lines long and easy for my developer to follows its syntax so that s/he can auto generate tables from their database into FM - and the developer doesn't have to deal with unnecessary defs). This will be used to create all the ") and then define exceptions to the Table Format by giving the statement name for the specific property and then redefining it. i.e. create a local definition (instantiation) based on the Table catalog definition. (The MIF manual gives an example of redefining the number of columns and then adjusting their width - there is nothing about the table title property). For some reason this does not work with the TableTitle. Any ideas why not?
