   I have a 50 page table of Acronyms and Glossary Terms with 
 cross-references between cells. The cross-references work 
 fine until I sort the table, then they are all broken. There 
 are 163 Unresolved cross-references.

This is a long-standing problem with table sorting -- it blows away all
the xrefs. There is no fix or workaround. 

I hope the rest of your week goes better. :-}

A very old problem.

  I have a 50 page table of Acronyms and Glossary Terms with 
cross-references between cells. The cross-references work fine 
until I sort the table, then they are all broken. There are 163 
Unresolved cross-references.

The only workaround I've heard about (and *not* tested)
is to change the Cross-Reference marker type to something
else (like ref) before the sort, and change it back after.
It seems that Frame perversely removes all Cross-Reference 
markers, but leaves others alone.  FWIW.

There are a few tools that can aid in this, including the
freeware cud MarkerWorker tool, available at:
  http://www.freeframers.org/freeware/cud/
Note that the docs for it (and for the rest of cud's tools
there) are in CudSpanDocs.pdf there.

And Leximation has MarkerTool:

HTH!
