Klaus,
I have been bothered for many years about FM's use of the word
"source" to describe the target of a link. A couple of years ago, I
figured out that the target of the link (and a cross-reference is a
link) is the source of the text that FM displays for the
cross-reference. I found this simple recognition that the marker,
paragraph,h or element selected in the cross-reference dialog box is
both a target and a source surprisingly helpful in reading and
understanding FM's Cross-reference documentation.
