Subject:FrameMaker cross-refs in Word doc From:Sally Yeo <SYeo -at- ELUCIDEX -dot- COM> Date:Fri, 25 Jun 1999 13:36:52 -0700
One more question for the list-
1. You have a Word 97 doc with cross-refs.
2. You import the doc into FrameMaker.
3. In FM the cross-refs work-you can Ctrl-Alt-Click and you will go to the
target-however...
4. If you select a cross-ref and look at it in the cross-ref dialog box, it
doesn't show up in the paragraphs-it shows that there is a marker but
doesn't show it connected to the paragraph tag. (The cross-ref appears to
not be in the FM database.)
So the question is, how do you get it to keep the paragraph tag information
with the cross-reference?
