Moderately Urgent! Cross-references within multiply used text insets

I have a file which uses text insets repeatedly. That is to say, the
same text inset is imported more than once AS an inset. Each inset has
cross-references to information within the inset only.

Before I print to PDF, I convert the insets to text and regenerate so
that the cross-references become clickable. The problem is that only
the FIRST instance of each text inset use has clickable links. Every
succeeding instance links back to the first instance, not to the
current position.

Right now I'm manually updating, but for the next time I use this
document, I'd like to know if there's a faster/better way of doing
this. These insets allowed me to write about 50 pages instead of 250,
so I don't want to convert them to text and leave them that way. It'd
be a maintenance nightmare. On the other hand, manually updating a
couple hundred links isn't my idea of fun, either.

Help!
