Ok, I tried that.Does not seem to exist. I.e., when I hold down the Shift key, there does not appear in the File menu, an 'All' version of the Save As command allowing me to save all the chapters at once as an earlier version. So, so far it seems that programing is the only way to go for a professional solution. Meantime, I recorded a Windows macro using the QM QuickMacros app, which allows me to select a document in the book and then do all the ops automatically to save the chapter as the earlier version. So that helps a lot. However, every now and again FM displays a message asking me what to do about bad cross-references, thus the other question I posted today about suppressing them book wide.
