Van – Glad to help. FRAMESTORE/PAGES holds 'Framestore' pages for the CG slice of the Toaster. You will only find CG pages that have been saved using Alt-F9 'Save Rendered Page'. They show up in the CG page list (on the Toaster control panel) with a little lightning bolt before the name. I will agree that the manual is pretty sparse when it comes to the CG. (Especially since the interface is SO different from the rest of the software. The only reason I knew the answer is that I had just had to create some CG pages for a client. Figuring out how to transfer those files seamlessly over to his system took some sleuthing on my part. I had to make sure that all needed components were transferred to his system (ie: Project, CG Book, CG Pages, and some framestores). As it was, since my'Work' partition is called 'WORK', and my clients' was labeled, I had to manually rename 'WORK' to 'DH0' to make the CG pages show up on his system – EVEN after transferring the Project info! Oh well, glad to have been of help. Keep On Toastin' Erik Flom
