[Framers] A FrameMaker bug or is something wrong with my files?

[Rick Quatro]

Check to see if the original file had 2 or more consecutive spaces in the file name or path. The hypertext marker will replace 2 or more consecutive spaces with a single space and that will cause a mismatch between the link and the file name.

It was something to do with the file itself.  The problem followed the chapter in question when I reversed their order, swapping chapter 1 for chapter 2 in the book.

Since the two chapters were otherwise very similar, I deleted the troublesome Chapter 1 and saved a copy of Chapter 2 with a new name, and then added it to the book. The problem has gone away.

If I had the time and a good reason to do it, I'd run some kind of comparison between the old chapter 1 and its replacement chapter to find 
the difference. Maybe on another   rainy day, but I've spent enough time 
on this problem as it is.
