Okay. Create 10 subfolders with your corporate graphics in them. Name them any way you want. Create your FrameMaker links so that they look for graphics in a subdirectory named such as "graphics." Whenever you have to output for one OEM or another, rename (copy is better) the graphics folder for that OEM to "graphics." Thus, the graphics linked by FrameMaker will change to reflect the current OEM doc you are working on. As long as you don't ever overlap conditions, create a condition for each of your 10 OEMS. Hide the 9 you don't need for the current OEM doc you are working for. This will work fine for what you describe. Create variables for product names and part names, and set the variables appropriately for the OEM doc you are working on. You could also import text insets, though I don't like these. You'd have to manage the text insets in the same way I suggest for graphics. If you want a database solution, checkout www.miramo.com and www.patternstream.com. Cheers, Sean
