Missing text insets that aren't missing

[Alison Craig]

Under different circumstances I've had the same problem (unstructured FM9, all patched on Windows 7).

To get rid of the unresolved text inset complaints, I completely deleted the all text insets in the relevant files, including the paragraph tags to which they were attached. Then I reinserted the P tags and text insets. That did the trick for me.

The P tag issue was important as I found that deleting all the text insets - without reinserting them - then updating the files still resulted in complaints about unresolved text insets. I have no idea why this would be.

Subject: Missing text insets that aren't missing

All,

FM 8 (unstructured)
Win XP

I've created a book by copying over the files from another similar book, renaming the book, TOC, and IX files, then changing the text to suit the new book.

Both the original book and the new one use lots of text insets. In the new book, I've replaced every text inset from a new location. When I create an LOR, all the insets are coming from the correct folder. When I search for unresolved text insets, I find none.

But, when I update the book, 3 files always come up with unresolved text insets. I notice that the book errors show a path to the original file for the old book for these 3 files, but I can't find anything pointing to that folder.

When I open the 3 files, no error messages about unresolved text insets.

I've tried the following:


 *   I opened one file as a mif and searched for the old folder/book file name. I found just one instance in an xref. I didn't think that was the cause of this.
 *   Created a whole new book file, added the chapters, updated, same unresolved text inset messages after updating.
 *   Washed all files via MIF. No change.

 *   Opened a blank file, copied all of a chapter into it, and updated with the newly created chapter. No change.
Anyone know where FM is storing the old folder/book name information and how to expunge it? Of course, I'm on a deadline.

Thanks!!
