Try this. It works for me. In the header, I placed the title of the report and the author's name. An example follows. To try it out, try it on one of the supplied templates - File > New Document ... Select Report. Then, select ReportPlain.fm. * Prepare some content * The template opens a simple report. At the cursor, type a title for the report, eg. "High Berries". * Notice the paragraph tag is "ReportTitle". * Press [Enter]. Notice the paragraph tag is now "ReportAuthor". * Type a name, eg. "Tarzan". * Redefine a Running H/F * To edit the header, View > Master Pages. * Click in the header. * Format > Header & Footer > Insert Other.... Select Running H/F 1. * Click [Edit definition...]. * The definition box shows <$paratext[ReportTitle]> which is "High Berries". * I want the author's name as well. Click at the end of the line, after [Title]>. * Type [space]-[space], then in the Building Blocks box below, find <$paratext[paratag]> and double-click on it, to add it to the definition. * Should look like below. <$paratext[ReportTitle]> - <$paratext[paratag]> * Edit the second Building Block. Change "paratag" to "ReportAuthor". Click [Edit]. * View * Click [Update]. Click [OK]. * View > Body Pages. Hope that works for you. Brian
