Import by Reference Question/Bug ?

Rick,
The only way that I can see is that something in the path or filename of the
graphics must be different or you aren't saving the Frame file once you have
redirected the file to point to the proper graphic file location.

When you open a Frame file, that can't locate a referenced graphic, and you
select to skip this file, the next time you open that particular Frame file,
it will again ask for the correct graphic file location, even if you have
saved the file.

Check the path and filename of the referenced graphic files. The complete
path and filename MUST remain identical.

Hi Framers, 

I have Frame 8 with all the updates/patches running on a WinXp system
with 3gig RAM, 500gig HD, and a 2GHz Core 2 CPU. I have about 55
drawings imported by reference in a single Frame file. When one or more
of the imported by reference drawings changes, Frame gives the option to
update the path to the drawing or to skip the file or ignore all missing
files. When I try to select skip this file or ignore all missing files,
frame just redisplays the Missing File window. I have made sure Frame is
not looking for a different drawing, I cannot get Frame to skip or
ignore. Anyone ever had this problem, thank you all in advance for your
help. 

Rick
