Current file only, unless that's changed with FM11 (and I doubt it). Where I work, we have a sort-of-similar issue, and we solved it by using cross-references. It means you'll have to remember to check that you're pointing to the right files if you add any new ones in, but it beats typing everything in (and you'd have to manually update that way, too).
