Re: Script to change a paratag based on the autonumber format
Hi Scott!
Yes! Your script works beautifully!
Thank you very much. So, I guess I owe you a beer (or a lunch) at tekom
tcworld in Stuttgart (I hope you can wait that long)?
Cheers!

Hi Yves...
The answer to your questions is .. Yes! :-)
If you're looking for the code to do it, that might take a bit more time.
Some generous developer might post the code for you, I'll provide some
pseudo-code ..
- iterate each paragraph in the document
- check the autonumber format value ..
- if autonum string starts with •\t .. assign the listitem1 para tag
- if autonum string starts with o\t .. assign the listitem2 para tag
This should actually be pretty simple .. I just can't do it right now. If
no one else does, I might though. :o

Hi group
I've got a FrameMaker file which was converted from a Word document. The
FrameMaker file contains the paratag [List Paragraph] but this tag is also
used by nested bulleted lists. Consequently, the autonumber format is as
follows:
•\t for top-level list items
o\t for second-level list items
Is there a way to rename the paratag based on the autonumber format, for
example:
rename [List Paragraph] with the •\t autonumber format to [listitem1]
rename [List Paragraph] with the o\t autonumber format to [listitem2]
Thanks
