Hi Dafra08, Thanks for the answer! I like your idea. We actually considered putting our strings in a variable set. Theoretically it makes sense, though it's hard to implement in practice... We have a database of UI strings that we could (relatively) easily convert to a Flare variable set. However......

I want to use CSH, and use DOC as a prefix. For example: http://www.mycompany.com/docs/default#cshid=DOC0001.

We're generating a glossary for a Flare project from an external source (a terminology management tool). This actually works quite well because the XML structure is easy enough. However, we do stumble on some limitations in Flare, or so we think... Is it possible to use two Glossaries, one used for ...
