When I ordered FrameMaker it was with the hopes that such a well-versed
application would live up to its boasts.  In some respects I have found
FrameMaker to be extremely versatile, and well worth the praise.  On
the other hand, I purchased this application with the expressed intent
of replacing my currently heavy use of TeX with a WSYWYG document
preparation system.  I was told that FrameMaker completely supports
book preparation, but now I find that bibliographic databases and references
are not supported at all.  Poor advertising.

Not that I believe everything that a company tells me on the phone.  So,
does anyone have a way to prepare reference lists and cites in FrameMaker?
Preferably in a smart way?  Or am I a TeX man once again?  Thanks for any
comments.
