I'm putting in a small table in my document. I want to wrap the text around it. Is it possible and how do I do it?
It's possible, but tricky. There are two ways to do this.

A table in a text frame inside an anchored frame would work.

Also note that FrameMaker only runs around one side of either a text frame or an anchored frame, not both.

If an autonumbering problem arises, it can be worked around.

There's usually a way around it, yes. I haven't actually done this before, and didn't have time to do a lot of testing. I just found it odd that if you put the table inside a text frame, the autonumbering got disconnected, but if you put the table inside a text frame inside a graphic frame, it incremented.
Testing consisted of inserting a paragraph with the table title tag inside the main flow followed by a table title inside a text frame, followed by a table title inside a text frame inside an anchored frame followed by a table title inserted in a paragraph. The table title inside the anchored frame incremented. The one inside the text frame restarted.

I like the second option, it worked nicely. Thanks

I think Bob and I posted the same answer at almost the same time.
