Duplicate Flow Tag
I'm using FrameMaker 10 on Windows XP. I have a structured FrameMaker file that somehow got a duplicate flow tag, and as a result, the document compare won't work properly: The document named New.fm contains multiple flows with the same name (A). These flows will be ignored when the documents are compared. Continue with the comparison? I'd like to get rid of the duplicate flow tag, so I checked the documentation about connecting text frames (Format Customize Layout Connect Text Frames), but when I try to do that, I get Cannot change text frame connections. Flow is structured. Occasionally, I also get OK to use a text frame that isn't visible? So I'm worried that there are invisible text frames in there that are also called Flow A. If that's possible, how do I find them and delete them?

RE: Duplicate Flow Tag
Hi Fei Min, You might try opening a copy of your structured template and copy/paste the content from the other document. Save the document and try the compare again. Maybe the duplicate flow is not in the template but just in that particular document.

RE: Duplicate Flow Tag
Thanks, Rick and Matt. I thought about just copying the content to my template because I'm confident it is clean, but I thought I would try to find the offending item first. Matt suggested showing all conditional text, then doing a Select All to see what didn't get selected. I was giving up hope until I found two blank pages at the end. I deleted them, and the duplicate flow tags have gone away. Thank you!
