Instead, define the glossary terms as having an autonumbering of ": ". The visual effect will be the same, but your cross-refs to the run-ins will be without colon. If you need to cross-ref the actual glossary term texts, the autonumber will not be included in a cross-ref format using <$paratext>, so it shouldn't cause any problems. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Thomas Michanek, [Michagon], Linkoping, Sweden FrameMaker/UNIX/MIF/scripting expert EMAIL: mailto:Thomas.Michanek@telia.com WWW: http://go.to/framers , or go directly to: http://w1.133.telia.com/~u13304072/framers * U P D A T E D O N J U N E 2 6 * - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ** To unsubscribe, send a message to majordomo@omsys.com ** ** with "unsubscribe framers" (no quotes) in the body. **
