Large book, many imported graphics, all imported by reference.

Today FrameMaker 7.0 (Mac) reported on saving a file that graphics information 
had been lost and asked me to report the problem to Adobe (Mac FrameMaker 
problem - Adobe - ha-ha!). On checking the document, it turned out that three 
[of many]  graphics imported by reference listed as 'No file' for 'Referenced 
file' and were grayed out.

Ok, I though - just backtrack to the previous version of the document, check 
the files' identities, and re-import them. But although the previous version 
showed the graphics correctly in the document, it also listed them as 'No file' 
under 'Referenced file'.

Puzzled, I went back to the very first [FrameMaker  6] version of the 
respective document. That was the same: the graphics showed up correctly, but 
also listed as 'No file'.

But it didn't end there: on reopening the current document that had originally 
given the graphics file save error, the problem graphics showed up correctly - 
but still listed as 'No file'.

PDFs, including pre-press PDFs, have been created from all of these books.

My questions are:

. How can FrameMaker apparently continue to work with a document with broken 
import link(s)

. How can it create Ps without error if one or more graphics appears to have a 
broken import link?

. Why did the original error appear and then disappear?

. How could this link breakage have initially occurred?

. Why hasn't the problem shown up before now?

. What is it about Tuesdays? (The above is only one of many minor hassles today)

I think it was Ford Prefect who said he could never get the hang of Thursdays. 
I fell the same way about Tuesdays.
