SUMMARY: FW: Removing ALL formats

["Art Campbell" <art.campbell@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have a winner! Nigel Parker's elegant solution (detailed below) 
is just what I was looking for.

Several people developed partial solutions, and several more kind
souls offered to help develop... but Nigel's wheel works very well.
Recommended for any FM toolbox.

Hi Art,
my CleanImport plugin deletes all formats (except Xrefs that are being used
and variables) before importing from a new template. Create a file with no
formats, and you'd end up with what you want.
