Adding to Dennis's point about guessing, I would add this--to me it seemed as if linked parts created as much work in some aspects as it saved in other aspects. Fortunately, I guessed right about the MM rest problem early on and posted it on the other forum...I must confess, however, that I returned 2007 and am back to using 2006. Perhaps my uses are just too basic, but I found the marginal cost of the linked parts thing to be far higher for my work than the marginal benefits were. I am sure that others will find it a blessing for their work. Jim

Just for the record, on a new file where I had the same problem, it was indeed solved by creating MM rests (also by recreating the part completely). I still find this behavior rather odd. How is one supposed to guess this? Anyway, thanks again for the help to both of you.
