In fact, Richard does NOT render the TOC of Volume 2 in Volume 1, nor
the TOC of Volume 1 in Volume 2, only the TOC of each volume,
respectively.




I have tried using

\useexternalfile [VolI] [Book_VolumeI] [{Volume I}]

(in Book_VolumeII.tex) to read in the Book_VolumeI.tuc


With this, I can indeed use

\from [VolI]

to add the file::Book_VolumeI.pdf hyperlink with the text "Volume I".

However, \in{Chapter} [VolI::ch:mychapterreference] gives no number
(but ?? does not get substituted and VolII::ch:mychapterreference does
NOT return a missing reference message in the Book_VolumeII.log file).

P.S.
Once that works, maybe I can figure out how to render the TOC.
I would expect/hope that

\placecontents [criterium=VolI::all]

would be the way to go.
