[Framers] Text insets with mini-TOCs not updating

Also, I know that each shared file is set up to use the host file's
formatting/settings, but if the shared file has exactly the same paragraph
tags w/ numbering schemes as the container file (and not just inheriting
stuff), this usually solves a problem or two w/ TIs.

Art,

Is the numbering for each shared file set to "Continue" and the same for the
container file? When you are importing the shared file into the container
file, on the Import Text Flow by Reference dialog box, is Reformat Using
Current Document's Formats selected as well as Automatic for Updating of
Imported Flow?

OK, here's the setup, in '17:

   1. Some shared chapter files are in a \Shares directory parallel to the
   discrete book directories.
   2. Each shared chapter file has a mini-TOC showing its H1s.
   3. Each book has a container file for the shared chapter with unique
   page furniture, chapter number/head, and intro paragraph.
   4. Each shared file is set up to use the host file's formatting/settings.

The problem is that when the book is updated, the mini-TOCs aren't updated
with the host book's page numbers, so the mini-TOC might say the topic is on
page 3 when it's really on 187. Mini-TOCs are supposed to be updated with a
book is refreshed.

Any thoughts? Bug?

Thanks,
Art
