In this video tutorial I'm going to teach you how to create a List of Tables when you're using Adobe FrameMaker 9. Right now I have two files open. One of them is called SouthAmerica.fm and pressing Ctrl-Tab switches me to the other, which is SouthAmericaLOT.fm. Both files are located inside the same folder. I'm going to change my display to show both files, one beside the other and now I'm scrolling through the first document to show you that there are three tables: one, Table 1 called Forestry Products; the next, titled Agriculture; and the last one titled Water Resources. Each of the tables is set up with a Paragraph Tag called Table Title used at the beginning. The Chapter itself is titled South America and this paragraph format is a Chapter. As with a Table of Contents or a List of Figures I go through and generate a List of Tables by starting under Special, choosing List of and selecting Tables. In this example I am going to create a standalone List of Tables so I click Yes. Table Title is selected as the default Paragraph Tag to include, but I also want Chapter, so I double-click to include it. All of the other defaults for the Suffix of LOT and the checkbox next to Create Hypertext Links are what I want so I click Set. You'll see on the right side automatically SouthAmericaLOT.fm is populated with a Chapter number 1 and the title South America and three numbered entries for Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3. All of the page numbers are correctly set up and since I had Hypertext on these are all Hyperlinks into the source within the original document, right up to the Titles. So, Agriculture, Water Resources. I'm going to take this paragraph for Water Resources and cut it, move up in my document and paste it a little earlier in the file, let's say before this bullet list. Table 2, Water Resources, is now on page 3, rather than on page 4 which is what's represented inside the List of Tables and to ensure that I properly update I click once inside the source, select Special, List of, Tables. Yes, I want the standalone. I Set using all the defaults and you'll see on the right-hand side Table 2 and Table 3 are reversed in order. Because I'm consistently and correctly using my Templates updating my List of Tables is relatively effortless other than going through a Menu choice and perhaps initially configuring a few settings it's just a couple of clicks of the button and you're done.
