I assume that after adding the topicref pointing to c_sample_concept.xml in create_files.ditamap, you have saved the map to disk.

I used exactly the same file layout. As expected, I cannot reproduce the problem. I would suggest to retry [1] opening c_sample_concept.xml [2] loading create_files.ditamap as the link context. If it still does not work, I now really need a formal bug report, that is, * A set of map and topic files allowing to reproduce the problem. * A screenshot of the error dialog box (I need to see the exact URLs). * More information about your working environment (Please *Shift*-click Help|About and send me a copy -- Ctrl-A then Ctrl-C then Ctrl-V elsewhere -- of the textual contents of the dialog box). > > > While we’re on the subject, does/will the LinkTool support the > @format=”ditamap” option in topicrefs (where the @href points to another > ditamap) and load the destinations in _/that/_ map?

That is, something like: <topicref href="submap.ditamap" format="ditamap"/> -- XMLmind XML Editor Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/xmleditor-support
