Anyone know if there's a way to switch charsets in FM ? If I just go in and, say, import the paragraph definitions for every paragraph style from a document that I know IS searchable, will that do it, or is there a single switch I might be able to flip.
(The problem is that at this point, I have no idea WHICH characters are from the Word doc and which aren't.)
==Emily, who just realized that we are now all the way up to 2003 and that 2003 - 1997 is actually 6 years.
