Recently I decided I wanted to get references in endnotes instead of footnotes, so I added some very simple macros, like FS/FE, around a diversion, thus: .de XS .ev2 .da XA .br .. .de XE .br .di .ev .. Aside from defining some number registers, the footnote macros FJ and FK really don't seem to have much more to them than XS/XE, and the XS/XE pair work as expected when I use them in the text. However, when I replaced the FS/FE pairing under [2 in tmac.srefs, the references are output in the text where I had the tags for refer instead of being put into the diversion. I messed around with variations on the macros much of the day and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I can't see why FS and FE will work in the sref macros, but XS/XE won't! Thanks and Happy Holidays. I can't believe it's almost Christmas again! Greg
