Nope .. I don't have such a plugin, and I'm not aware of one that would
help with this (but I've added it to my list of plugins to develop).
I just did some quick testing, and it appears (in FM 7.1) that this
doesn't affect other marker types .. so in theory, you could rename your
Cross-Ref markers to some other type, then do the sorting, and rename
them back to Cross-Refs. You could do this renaming via a global
search/replace in a MIF file, if there were too many to do manually. Not
the best option for a clean workflow, but it may be an option.
If you're a FrameScripter, this would probably be a nice little script
to rename all markers of a given type to another "temporary" marker type.
Good luck!

Hi Bill:
Unfortunately, this is a FrameMaker quirk and I think it has been in the
last 3 releases. All xref markers go "poof" when you sort the table.
Unfortunately, the "fix" is to NOT do any sorting after you start placing
xrefs.
Russ or Scott, do you have any plug-ins that fix this?

Hi everyone,
We ran into an interesting issue. When sorting a table, we are noticing that
the xrefs are broken after the sort. We're running into this a lot now that
our translations are coming back from the localizers (given the tables need
to be re-sorted based on the language rules).
Has anyone else noticed this broken xref issue when sorting tables
containing xrefs, and does anyone know a workaround other than manually
sorting the tables?
Thanks!
