Re: FrameMaker does NOT update links . . . .

[Lin Sims <ljsims -dot- ml -at- gmail -dot- com>]

My apologies, I simply hit respond on the latest email, not on Nancy's,
where her first item was:

  1. Right clicked filename, selected Rename, and edited and saved the
>    new filename.

Which is why I thought perhaps she'd used Explorer to rename the files the
first time she'd tried to do this, since she specified she did it within
the book file in her second item.

As you say, the way you handled it is how Frame is supposed to work. :)

Sorry for the confusion!
