You mean, you're working with a child document only, without opening the master? I'd think this should work...
I use Richard's suggestion of loading the xr package when the cross-reference happens with unrelated documents, i. e., outside a master-child structure. In this case, I have to generate and keep the *.aux file of the documents for the xr package to be able to pick up the labels.
