I *cannot* reproduce the problem
* on Windows 2000, Java 1.5.0_03,
* by dragging C:\Program
Files\XMLmind_XML_Editor\doc\user\userguide.xhtml into XXE,
* by using GNU Emacs to modify  C:\Program
Files\XMLmind_XML_Editor\doc\user\userguide.xhtml,
* with the binding[*] below:

---
  <binding>
    <keyPressed code="F3" />
    <command name="XXE.open" parameter="[reopenIfNewer]" />
  </binding>
---

Ideas:

* May be you have bound command refreshFromSource to a keystroke that
cannot work properly (Esc, Alt-something, etc). Explanation depends on
the keystroke you have chosen.

* May be the external application you use to modify your document locks
the file.

* May be XXE ``crashes''. With Java, ``crashes'' are very soft. They are
almost never fatal. You need to run XXE with a console and send us the
error messages possibly displayed in this console.



-----------------------------------
In order to run XXE with a console:

Here I assume that you start XXE using the ``icon/launcher created by
the installer'' (file xxe.exe) in the Start menu:

1. Go to the bin/ subdirectory of the directory where you have installed
XXE, for example C:\Program Files\XMLmind_XML_Editor\bin.

2. Edit xxe.jstart using notepad. Make sure to use a version of notepad
which supports the UTF-8 encoding.

3. Change line:

---
start jre\bin\javaw.exe
---

to:

---
start jre\bin\java.exe
---

4. Make sure to save your changes using the UTF-8 encoding.

5. Start XXE as usual, using the "Start" menu/"XMLmind XML Editor"
group/"XMLmind XML Editor" entry.

[*] There is no need to define a macro just to execute a single command.
But I'm sure your problem does not come from this.
