It's just a warning message that one or more component files in the book have a Conditional text setting that is inconsistent with the others. It's not a big deal. I forget if you can apply Conditional text settings to all files in a book in 7. If you can, select 'em all and do it. If not, pick one comoponent file with the correct settings and Apply Formats to all the others, checking only the ConText settings. Save and update. Art Campbell art.campbell at gmail.com "...

New error message
"FM8_Track_Changes_added" is the name of a condition in one or many of your files. It has nothing to do with any updates. It's a condition you or someone editing your files created and used. FrameMaker is telling you that its visibility settings are inconsistently applied throughout your book, meaning some have the condition indicators (usually colored text) visible and some have them hidden so the condition looks like regular text. Select all files in your book and pull up "Show/hide conditional text" and set the indicators appropriately.

This has nothing to do with software updates. "FM8_Track_Changes_added" is just the name of a condition. My guess is that it was inadvertently imported into one of your files from some other FM file. You can create an index of references (IOR) that includes condition tags to see if and where this one is used. But it may not actually be applied to anything. In that case, you'll just have to cycle through all the files in your book while the Conditional Text dialog is open. Assuming you want to get rid of it, when you find a file with that tag listed, select the tag, click Edit Condition Tag, and click Delete. Or get the Clean Import plug-in from electropubs.com and import conditions from a file that has only the ones you want. HTH! Richard Richard G.

I'm using FrameMaker 7.1 in XP SP3. All of a sudden, when I update my book, I'm getting error messages that say "condition indicator for FM8_Track_Changes_added is inconsistent." Since I'm not using FM8, and FM7 does not have change tracking, I assume that this is some recent addition that got through the usually abortive updates that I periodically receive. Can I clean it out somehow? (I have belatedly switched "check for updates" in the Preferences to "Never," but somehow I've got to get this particular horse back into the barn.)
