Yes. And the workaround that several of us have suggested (opening all the component files before doing book-level operations) is still valid, That approach will eliminate the multiple, very slow open-update-save-close cycles that have to occur in the background if the files are not open during the updae book operation. I know you've said that the Open All Files In Book command chokes, but you will still save a lot of time in the long run if you take a fee minutes to manually open each file. And there are several approaches you could take to scripting this if manual opening is too tedious for you. -Fred Ridder
