Now in Frame 9, when I press ctrl-f, the Find/Change pod displays, but
the cursor is rarely waiting there in the text box. In fact, the
focus seems to be unpredictable.
There is still the hidden (not availiable in menus) dialog Set up

I wonder if there's a way to get a FrameScript set up to set initial
F/R options whenever the focus moves to the box or pod? Or get
something like Rick Quatro's Advanced SR script tool to run when you
hit Ctrl-F.

He's not locked in. If he activated, he can de-activate before
uninstalling, and he's good to move the software anywhere -- including

Another easier way to go may be to give the user Admin privileges, so
she can execute FM.

Scott,
I think he is being unreasonable, especially to suggest that you get
with Adobe and have them fix this or get answers to his problem. He
is just going to have to learn that he can't always have everything
his own way.

That was exactly what I was thinking -- installed "For Just This User"
instead of "All Users."
But I suspect you might also be able to fix it if the Admin account
twiddles the directory permissions (recursively) to allow Everyone to
execute the Frame directories.

Along with the other suggestions to get the IT nerd to install the

Simple question, does anyone remember/know if the default install for
Framemaker 9.0 is single user or if there is even an option to install
as single or multiuser?
