1. How did you use the reference page elements? Are they in a reference page 
flow that is linked to a paragraph style? Or did you just use the reference 
page as a convenient source to copy the table from every time you needed it. 

2. How do the tables get cut off? Are the cells smaller in FM11? Or has the 
text position in the cells changed so the text won't fit any more? 
Depending on what has happened, you may have to change the cell properties, or 
the paragraph style.

Re: 7.2 to 11 Upgrade and reference pages

First, if you updated the file by opening the 7 as an 11 and saving,
I'd save the file as a .mif and open that to ensure that you're
working in a file without extra characters and any possible 7 hangover
effects.

Once you know you have clean files, the first things I'd check would
be your table formats -- it sounds as if either the width of the cell
has changed,
or the alignment has changed, maybe from left to center? You should be
able to check this quickly by applying a different table format and
seeing if that changes things.

After that, I'd check the settings in whatever para tags you're using
to format the text -- that also may have been changed in the updare.
