Re: Deleting (REALLY deleting) conditional text



Hi,

>From the response I received, it seemed that the best answer to what I
needed would be FrameScript. Rather than spend the time and money on another
tool (albeit a nicely targeted one), I took another route that a couple
Framers suggested:
>Select the condition tag in the Conditional Text dialog,
>click Edit Condition Tag and then Delete.

... and created my own script using Macro Express (a tool I already know and
own). It's probably not as elegant as FrameScript, and will probably break
the next time I upgrade FrameMaker. But it solved my problem.

Thanks,
John B.
