<p class="MsoNormal">The server (ex. <a>\\Server</a>) that houses our FM files is assigned a logical drive X:. I believe this has something to do with protecting against viruses.
<span style="color:red">FM does not like this</span>.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For example, when an image is imported into a FM document using the X: path, the image blinks in the FM document, as if FM continually updates the definition of X: and the image path becomes momentarily unknown and then becomes known (and
so the blinking where the image is displayed and then appears in gray and so on).<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now I realize that some cross-references to other FM documents contain X: in the target document path. FM does not like that either. May crash because of this.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our IT guy says that the X: cannot be removed (same profile for all). My team of tech writers usually uses a shortcut (defined correctly from
<a>\\Server</a>) to open books/documents but someone always forgets. I now have scripts that check the path for x-refs and images imported by reference.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone know if this problem exists in later versions of FM (10 or 11)? That would solve this problem once and for all.<u></u><u></u></p>
