That's simply not true about Flare. I'm compiling a help file right now with Flare that was authored in Frame. It's quite easy to set up a project to auto-import Frame content from Flare, and Flare adds a menu to Frame so that you can create or import projects. -=Ed. -Original Message-

There is an auto-import function in Flare that automatically reimports the Frame files when you tell Flare to create the output. It does take awhile to convert the Frame files to MIF and then to HTML, so it's a good time to get a beverage. -=Ed. -Original Message- From: Steve Johnson

Nadine- I personally think it's still single-sourcing, since you're compiling from the Frame source files. The output is multiple HTML files (since I create WebHelp), but I don't think that's different than any other WebHelp system. The conversion from FM to MIF to HTML is invisible; you never
