Find and Replace cross references

[Owen, Clint]

Cross references work great for this. Just put a cross reference marker
at the first place you use the text, like on a title page, then cross
reference it everywhere you need it. You can also use a variable to
insert the text in the first location, to make it even easier. Change
the variable once and it is propagated throughout the document.

Subject: Find and Replace cross references

Good morning fellow Framemaker Users!

You didn't think a day would pass without my popping my head in with
another question, did you?

I'm on XP using Framemaker 8.0., working with documents someone else
wrote.

So, the original author has hand typed the name of the document into
every.single.master.page (there's about 100 of them).  Unfortunately
(s)he got the name wrong.

I can do a find and replace for the name of the document, but would it
be possible to replace the hand-typed text with a cross-reference?

Thanks so much!
