it's your workflow that creates the confusion in references.

Thanks for your input. When I opened each file individually I did do it from

for both the FM 9 and FM 7 files the xrefs were still unresolved.

Hi,
OK. It should never happen, that some features do not work.
Or that features/shortcut keys get broken.
However, the new interface really offers some very useful
dialogs. For example:
o Checking all references with the Insets pod.
o Checking cross-references with the Cross-references pod.

I've seen FO templating take
maybe 1.5-3x as long as in FrameMaker. $200k sounds more like they developed an
