Pallavi, 

Open the EDD and look at the general rule of your paragraph element. Does it look like this:

<TEXT>

If so, that means a Paragraph only allows text.

It should allow both text and CrossReferences. Since it's mixed content it should look like this:

(<TEXT> | CrossReference)* 

It's also possible that the element allows mixed content, but the CrossReference element is not included in that list. If so, the general rule might look something like this:

(<TEXT> | Emphasis | InlineGraphic | Button)*

You would need to add CrossReference to the general rule so that it looks like this:

(<TEXT> | Emphasis | InlineGraphic | Button | CrossReference)*

Hi
   
  I am trying to convert a FrameMaker file to  Structured FrameMaker file. What I am seeing is that the sentences following a cross reference in a paragraph are marked as invalid. I am using a CrossReference element for the cross reference instance and a normal cross reference style. For example, in this paragraph if the word "Structured" was a cross reference, then the rest of the sentence following the word (from "was") becomes invalid unless I put it in a new paragraph. Can some one tell me what is it that I am doing wrong and how I can fix it?
   
  Thanks
  Pallavi
