Asterisk

["Rick Quatro" <rick@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Framers,

I have a Frame document where the text was imported from Word. I am renaming
and applying formats programatically. Everything works except some of the
paragraphs have an asterisk next to the format name, indicating an override.
So, what I do is choose File > Import > Formats and check Remove Other
Format/Layout Overrides and click Import. The asterisk remains next to some
of the paragraph formats names.

The only way to remove the asterisk is to reapply the paragraph format from
the paragraph catalog, formatting bar, or paragraph designer. When I examine
the paragraph's properties before and after I reapply the format, it shows
that they are exactly the same. The only exception is the read-only
FP_FormatOverride property which is what indicates an override and triggers
the asterisk.

I can rename and apply formats to native paragraphs programatically without
this problem happening. It appears to be limited to paragraphs imported from
another program. I should also point out that it doesn't happen with all
paragraphs and some of the paragraphs have absolutely no property changes in
them.

Thanks for any help you can give.
