-> Subject: Stripping color definitions from .fm files
-> 
-> Anybody know an easy and quick way to delete several color 
-> definitions from a document at once?
-> 
-> When we paste something from sources such as web pages, 
-> pdfs, or other not-to-template docs into our .fm files, a 
-> bunch of non-standard color definitions are introduced 
-> (sometimes hundreds). These non-standard colors come before 
-> our standard colors alphabetically in the color palette 
-> list. To select one of our defined colors, we have to scroll 
-> for miles to get to ours in the list... annoying and time consuming.
-> 
-> It would seem an easy solution to rename our color 
-> definitions to fall at the top of the list. But at this 
-> point, our template is set in stone, and we have hundreds of 
-> files using these color defs. Plus, I want to get rid of the 
-> undesired colors, so new writers don't feel tempted to select them...
-> 
-> BTW, we're using FM 7.0p576. Thanks for any help --Melanie
