Also, is there some reason you want to do the replacement in the MIF file as opposed to the FM binary? It doesn't matter which, I'm just curious. One possible way would be to create a "variables-only" MIF container chapter and then import the variables from it into your "master" FM chapter (MIF or binary). The variables-only container chapter can be extremely simplified -- just a few MIF statements and the variables section -- because when FM opens a MIF file it supplies default values for anything that is missing.
