Greetings All,
I am writing a small book, which is nearly done, ready for publication, except.... that any new type turns green. The previous type stays black. I can delete the green type. If I try to delete the black type, it turns red with a line through it. But editing is impossible. I cannot make any rational changes to the text.
This weird thing happened to me some years ago, but I do not recall what the solution was. Any ideas out there? The problem seems to be a corruption in the file because I can edit other files with the software.
So what can I do to save the text so that it is editable? I am guessing that what I will have to do is removed the text from FM, strip the text of all formatting, hopefully getting a plain text result to strip out the problem, plug the text back in, and reformat.
Any other shorter way that will not lose all the formatting?
And how do I prevent another such event? Was there something I might have done to cause the problem?
Could the problem be in the Book file rather than the text file?
