Indeed!
(As I recall, we discussed this recently) ... my approach is an "Archive"
folder below the book folder to which I copy everything before each edit
I work on our company network. At the end of each day, I delete any
unwanted files from the folder(s) I've been working in, and copy the
folders for that manual to my local drive. I know it relies on my
memory, but I've done it for so long now, it's become a habit.

This is the way to go, but only if you want “Lisa Info” to be the only
conditional text format on the target paragraphs. If some of them are already
tagged with other conditional text formats, this procedure removes that other
tagging.

The idea of FrameMaker's backup files is similar to the idea of its
network locking: both seemed like a good idea in the 80s.

I think that the idea of the FM "backup" files is to provide *something*
in case the current file gets corrupted in some way. It's better to lose
the last edits to a file than to have the current (possibly corrupt)
file overwrite what was a good file.
Perhaps instead of calling these "filename

Hello,
In Frame 9, is it possible for me to set all text of a given paragraph tag to a
particular conditional text format in a single step?
For example, I want to assign the condition "Lisa Info" to all paragraph tags

I know...it's just a little more complicated on this end.
