Clarifying my previous post... If you can figure out the mysteries of scripting Word, you can set variables to text fields in FM and then use the formated string in Word. I believe this is not possbible in Xpress, and you need to use generate the Xpress tags using the scripting addition I mentioned above. Scripting Word is covered in many of the applescript books out there. Check out Sal Soghoian's site for Xpress scripting...

There is also a book... AppleScripting QuarkXPress by Shirley Hopkins.
