When I opened a "main  file" containing text insets, it looked fine.  However, when I double-clicked a text inset, the text inset file that opened was entirely different.  The original text inset file is no longer in the directory. It has actually disappeared from the network drive, but the original text from the inset is still in the "main file".   Has anyone else had anything similar to this?

See if you can find the missing text inset on the network drive and go
from there.
