Re: Getting data from xml into Frame was, Do I need to jump into the Structured FM pool?

Hi Carrie... For starters, you should get ahold of an XML diff tool (just google xml diff, and you'll see lots of options) so you can determine exactly what has changed between versions of this XML file. You should be able to get one of your developers to write an XSLT transformation that

Re: Getting data from xml into Frame was, Do I need to jump into the Structured FM pool?

XSLT is a scripting language for processing XML files. See .. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xslt XSLT is not a Frame-specific language, and if your developers use XML very much, someone is bound to be able to write a simple XSLT script to generate a list of parameters/fields .. something that

Unresolved text insets and relinking images

I need to move frame files and get unresolved text insets after I regenerate and end up having to re-link them all. Is there a way to keep these linked, or am I stuck importing them again? Also, we moved our library of images (don't ask why!) and now I have to re-link all the images. Any

If you have to move FM files around, always try to use Bruce foster's Archive plugin to collect all components that a book or file requires. Otherwise, always try to set up the directory structure so that the files are in the same relative paths before and after... Art On 5/21/07, Natalie
