Automatic unit conversion?

Hi everyone,

Is there a way, using unstructured FrameMaker, to set up some kind of Conditional Text that will convert one unit of measure to another?

For example, if I have 120 mg/dL in my document - can I set up logic that will convert the number to 2162.4? (I know I can change the unit itself using conditional text.)

I am looking for something I can set up once and use 125 or so times throughout our manual.

Ideally I would like be able to be able to do something like: when Conditional Text Units is switched to mmoL, everyplace a number denoted as mg/dL is found (these numbers would have to be marked as such somehow), display = (variable) * 18.02

Companies must deal with this a lot when publishing manuals in other countries.

Thanks in advance,

Diane
