autonumbering in framemaker tables
Hello Framers! Good day.. I have a long pin list stretching to 200 pin names, which i plan to describe in tabular format. Is there a way to insert autonumbering in a column of the table, so that i donot have to type in the serial number manually. Regards Surbhi

For the benefit of those who'd like to do this without using Excel, it's easy. FM remembers the pgf formats in the first body, heading, and footing rows as the "defaults" for that table format. So just create a new table format -- say, NumberedRows. On the Basic tab of Table Designer, make sure Numbering is set to Column First. In the first column of the first body row of the table, change the pgf to the autonumbered pgf format you want to use. With the insertion point still in the table, in Table Designer, click Update All. Each time you create a new NumberedRows table, the first column of each body row will automatically contain the autonumbered pgf. HTH! Richard G.

Surbhi, Try creating your pin list in Excel and then importing, not by reference, the Excel spreadsheet into Frame. I just created a small spreadsheet and it imported into Frame .2 without any issues.
