Hello Jasmine, Our SME/Engineers are routinely given FM to draft documents. We have set up a template for them to use (unstructured FM) and if they are so inclined to help, this usually works very nicely. The template is firstly setup with the types of headings and some sort of general statement

Apply book level conditional show/hide settings and make sure all files are using them. You can always open one file and import conditional text settings into all other files just to be certain they are all using the same rules. On Fri, Feb 11, 2011 at 4:57 PM, Brian Chan cha...@yahoo.com wrote:

Function key for page break

Frame 8 on Win XP. Can anyone tell me if there is a function key that brings up the page break dialog box? The keyboard shortcut Esc s p b works well, I was just hoping for some way of getting to the dialog with  fewer keystrokes. Thanks, Roy Lewis

Michael, I completely agree. I would not like to have to represent the same information with two variables. However, if Frame does not allow for $volnum to have two different number formats, then my choices are limited. This template is not of my design and must adhere to the existing
