It sounds like you want to revert to the previous version of the document (a good argument for a revision control system).
Fred's second suggestion of moving the cross reference marker is a good one, but you'd better make sure that not cross refs exist that are supposed to go to the location that you are moving the marker from. Otherwise, you'd be creating new "bad" xrefs.

If you create one instance of the correct cross-reference, you can copy that to the clipboard, and then do a Find/Change that uses the "By Pasting" option in the Change box. You'll still have to look at each cross-reference you find to see if it is one you need to change, but at least you can paste in the correct x-ref rather than having to reconstruct it manually. Or if all the cross-references that point to the "different" target are incorrect, you can select and cut the cross-reference marker at that incorrect location and then paste it into the correct location. (Cutting and pasting the cross-reference marker into a different location is the most likely cause of the kind of problem you describe, and this is the direct way of undoing that kind of issue.) -Fred Ridder _____ Date: Thu, 21 Jun 2012 18:01:22 +0300 Subject: FM 7.2: Is there a way to Find a cross-ref and Replace it with another cross-ref? From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Hi all, FM 7.2: Is there a way to Find a cross-ref and Replace it with another cross-ref? A blooper occurred in an FM doc, wherein a whole lot of cross-refs (all pointing to the same target) got replaced by a different cross-ref. TIA
