Conrad,

For your first question, there is no way to import XML into different flows unless you write a custom import/export client. When importing XML, it comes into the main flow only. If you stop to consider the endless myriad of possibilities with other flows, you'll understand why the original software architects chose this simplified route.

For FM drawing objects, I'm not sure. I think that maybe you can set them up (r/w rules) to save as MIF files, so they will come back in the same as they left. Otherwise, saving as XML will cause them to be rasterized into a single graphic. I don't personally use the FM drawing tools so someone else with more experience would have to address the validity of what I just said.

For your other questions, I'm not quite able to follow what you are asking.

Russ
