<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>There is another way to do it that doesn't use either a Running H/F system variable or a cross-reference, but whether it can be used depends on whether you are already using both the $volnum and $chapnum system variables.<br><br>Simply put, for each set of files that make up a given chapter you define either the $volnum or $chapnum system variable to be Text format (at the very bottom of the format list), with the value set to a string that matches the title of the chapter. Then in the master pages, you use either the <$volnum> or <$chapnum>, as appropriate, in place of the Running H/F 1 system variable in the header or footer layout. <br><br>-Fred Ridder<br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2014 17:21:07 -0500<br>Subject: Re: Persist a variable to the next file<br>From: ljsims.ml@gmail.com<br>To: john.x.posada@us.hsbc.com<br>CC: framers@lists.frameusers.com<br><br><div dir="ltr">OK, that was about what I thought.<br><br>The short answer is, you can't do it with a RunningH/F, as it only picks up the information in the CURRENT file. <br><br>If you want to bring the Chapter title over from a previous file, you'll have to edit the master page to use a cross-reference back to the file with the title in it (and set the link color to black so it doesn't look like a link).

I don't think the issue is the composition of the variable...it works fine<br>
when the page has a paragraph tag Chapter Title. The issue is when the<br>
para text doesn't appear in the FM file, but does in a previous file that I<br>
want to carry forward.<br>

Can you copy & paste the code you have in your variable and send it to the<br>
list?<br>

Good afternoon, guys..<br>
<br>
I have a book that uses the variable "Running H/F 1" in my footer that<br>
picks up Chapter Title.<br>
<br>
The hierarchy is Chapter Title, Heading 1, Heading 2, etc,.<br>
<br>
The problem is, for the sections that follow Chapter Title that start<br>
with<br>
Heading 1, the variable displays blank.<br>
<br>
The question is, how to I get Chapter Title to persist until changed by<br>
the<br>
next Chapter Title?<br>
<br>
