Cannot create FrameMaker structured book
2013-04-26-05T13:25Z Windows 7 Enterprise SP 1 Processor: 2.80 GHz RAM: 4.00 GB 64-bit operating system FrameMaker 11.0.1.382, stand-alone (AFAIK), installed on workstation .book and .fm files on server on LAN per corporate requirement I seldom need to create a structured book, and I first encountered this problem at least four years ago using (probably version 7.2 or 8). Only twice have I succeeded. I am completely at a loss as to why my success rate is so low. FrameMaker help for version 11, as best I can tell, does not even treat the subject of creating a structured _book_. Neither does the application developers guide for 7.2. These references include information about structured _files_ - but not structured _books_. If found nothing in the FrameUsers archive and using FrameUsers search. I reverted to consulting version 7 help. I followed the instructions in it under Creating structured book files and under Adding files to structured books. The files in the book are structured. They are associated with the correct structured application. I have produced a .edd file from the applicable .dtd file. I have imported element definitions from the .edd into the files and into the book file. (One of the files is problematic in that when I try to import element definitions into it, FrameMaker crashes. I Mif washed that file to no good effect. I do not believe that this problematic file is related to my inability to create a structured _book_.) In the book window, the book is as I named it, as I fully expect. In the book window, I choose the entry for the book, and I display the Structure View window. In the Structure View window, the parent element is NoName, and all the entire book is indicated as not valid. I cannot change the name of NoName, and I cannot get FrameMaker to recognize it as the parent element. It seems as though I can get to square two or three but not further. Help, please. ¡Thanks!

RE: Cannot create FrameMaker structured book
Hi Dave, After you add the structured files to the book, you have to update the book, then the correct elements should show up in the structure view and element catalog. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thank you very much.

RE: Cannot create FrameMaker structured book
2013-04-26-05T13:45Z Rick - Yes; thanks for mentioning. I failed to remember and to mention that when I try to update the book, FrameMaker hangs. It's hanging as I write this. I have to use Task Manager to end process and force FrameMaker out. So, now, the problematic file becomes a likely suspect.

SOLVED: Cannot create FrameMaker structured book
2013-04-26-05T17:25Z Rick Quatro generously provided the solution in a telephonic conversation. ¿Max Hoffman, will you please do whatever necessary to get the following procedure added to the help for FrameMaker? NOTE: This is based on my telephonic conversation 2013-04-26-05 with Rick Quatro (Carmen Publishing ( www.frameexpert.com/ ), 585-283-5045). Files added to the book do not have to be valid. SYMPTOM In a structured book, in the Structure View window, the program displays the top-level element in the book as NoName. MALFUNCTION The parent element for the book is not applied to the top-level element. CORRECTIVE ACTION 1. After adding structured files to the book, update the book. In the Structure View window, the program displays the name of each top-level element in each file. The program displays the top-level element in the book as NoName. 2. In the Structure View window, choose NoName. In the Edit Attributes window, on the Elements tab, choose the Options... button. The Set Available Elements window appears. 3. In the Set Available Elements window, in the Show Tags For: area, in the Valid Elements for Working Start to Finish option button, ensure a dot and choose the Set button. The program sets and displays the available elements. 4. On the Elements tab, choose the top-level element for the book. The program changes NoName to the name of the chosen element. 5. In the Structure View, arrange elements to conform. Again, many thanks to Rick Quatro. As many others have written before, ¡The contributors to this list are the _best_!

Cannot create FrameMaker structured book
2013-04-26-05T13:25Z Windows 7 Enterprise SP 1 Processor: 2.80?GHz RAM: 4.00?GB 64-bit operating system FrameMaker 11.0.1.382, stand-alone (AFAIK), installed on workstation .book and .fm files on server on LAN per corporate requirement I seldom need to create a structured book, and I first encountered this problem at least four years ago using (probably version 7.2 or 8). Only twice have I succeeded. I am completely at a loss as to why my success rate is so low. FrameMaker help for version 11, as best I can tell, does not even treat the subject of creating a structured _book_. Neither does the application developers guide for 7.2. These references include information about structured _files_?- but not structured _books_. If found nothing in the FrameUsers archive and using FrameUsers search. I reverted to consulting version 7 help. I followed the instructions in it under "Creating structured book files" and under "Adding files to structured books." The files in the book are structured. They are associated with the correct structured application. I have produced a .edd file from the applicable .dtd file. I have imported element definitions from the .edd into the files and into the book file. (One of the files is problematic in that when I try to import element definitions into it, FrameMaker crashes. I "Mif washed" that file to no good effect. I do not believe that this problematic file is related to my inability to create a structured _book_.) In the book window, the book is as I named it, as I fully expect. In the book window, I choose the entry for the book, and I display the Structure View window. In the Structure View window, the parent element is , and all the entire book is indicated as not valid. I cannot change the name of , and I cannot get FrameMaker to recognize it as the parent element. It seems as though I can "get to square two or three" but not further. Help, please. ?Thanks!
