RE: changing anchored frame properties throughout document

[Ron Nelson <rnelson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You're right, it will open it as a text file, but for some reason each file
was taking an incredibly long time to open in FM.  However, if I open it in
TextPad (not Word! B-)it opens right up and the search and replace is very
fast.

Does anyone know why FM takes so long to open my mif files as text?

Good news--you can edit the MIF file in FrameMaker. In the File Open
dialog, select the file that you want to open. Then hold down the Shift
key, and click Open with the mouse. FrameMaker should then open the file
as a text file.
