Hi Nancy, After you split the files, open each one and choose Edit > Update References. Check the All Cross-References check box and click Update. In the resulting dialog box, you have an oportunity to point to the other documents. All of the unresolved cross-references will be to the current document, but go ahead and point to one of the other documents and click Open. Keep doing this until the number of cross-references ends up being zero and click Cancel to exit the dialog box.
Note that if you do a lot of splitting, I have a FrameScript script that will split the files based on paragraph formats and will automatically resolve the references. If you are interested in this, please contact me offlist. Thank you very much.
