OK then. To be frank, I did not manage to read all the threads as carefully as may be necessary. So all you do is remember the source of a bundled file if is is outside of document directory, right? In this case I agree with Jose that remembering it in lyx session stuff makes more sense, since it allows to have a different place for the external file in each user setting, which is in the end much more configurable that what you propose. And then there is no question about translating absolute path names between different architectures. JMarc
