I'm using Frame 8 on XP Pro SP3. I have some text insets that I want to mark to appear or disappear depending on whether the document needs them or not. One is "domestic" and the other is "row". My problem is that within the text inset is a condition (G2) that also appears in the document that I want to show in the document whether or not the text inset shows. So what's happening is: 1 - Click on the text inset. 2 - Set it to "domestic". 3 - Set my target file to show "row" along with "G2". 4 - The text inset disappears except the "G2" tagged text from the inset still shows. I end up with a heading on the following paragraph that has the paragraph number followed by however many instances of text tagged "G2" in the text inset or insets followed by the actual text of the heading. I seem to remember that previously if you tagged a text inset with a condition and then turned off the condition, the text inset (all of it) did not show. So it appears that Frame 8 now will hide the text inset except for any text tagged with a condition that is used and set to show in the target file. I'm haven't played with the expressions much, but I'm not sure there's a way to tell it to use the "G2" condition in the file, but ignore it if it's in a text inset that isn't to be shown. Thanks, Mike
