Yes you can, with the addition of the FrameScript language available at www.framescript.com.

This would be a rather simple script to write actually. If you are interested in learning how to write scripts you can join the FrameScript user group at Yahoo groups. I could send you some code that would help lay out the basic structure of the script to help you get started. Alternatively, you could have a consultant who specializes in this form of automation (such as myself or someone else) develop the script for you.

I offer a number of free scripts on my web site at www.golehtek.com, as well as consulting services, if you decide to invest in FrameScript.

Anthony,

I have to do something similar, but as far as I know you cannot autopopulate the table directly. I use an indirect approach.

You can create a list of paragraphs and specify which paragraph styles you want in the list. Then convert the list to a table. If you want the paragraph/figure/table numbers in one column and the content in another, you can play with the reference page that Frame creates for your list by adding tabs at the place where you want the content to go into a column. Then update the book and convert the new list into a table.

That is the only way I know how to do what you want. Maybe others have other ideas.

Hope this helps,
Van

Van,

Thanks for the help and I will look into the reference pages. I thought that is what I might need to do, but i was hoping there might be something else.

Once again,

Thank you,

Tony

Martin,

Thanks for the info. I was actually asking this for a friend who uses unstructured framemaker for a different company, and i use structured with Framscript at my company. I had a feeling that framescript was the way to go, but praying there was a way without framescript. I am going to consider joining the Framescript user group, and i will look into your sight for more information.

Once again,

Anthony
