Hi Scott Thanks for your reply. After more research and reading, plus some trial and error, I came up with the same rule that you have below, and it works. FM knows what to do if you then give the @outputclass attribute a value of 270. I guess you can also use 90 or 180. I also tried it

Your copy of FM should just be sitting there at the Splash screen when doing the linking to a RH project. I've never had any Not Responding messages happening when dealing with TCS4 on my Win7 64-bit machine or an XP SP3 machine either. Can you give us more details about your O/S and hardware?
