High resolution soft X-ray spectra acquired with the Flat Crystal Spectrometer on Solar Maximum Mission provide an excellent data base for studying abundances in solar active regions, and testing current ideas on elemental selection by first ionization potential (FIP). The temperature-diagnostic lin...
