FM treats paths as relative _unless_ they traverse the root directory of a drive. So, this results in absolute paths because the relative path between them traverses \: \foo\insetsource.fm \bar\insetdestination.fm This does not because the relative path between them traverses commondir: \commondir\foo\insetsource.fm \commondir\bar\insetdestination.fm HTH!

If you want to do it faster, map the Import File command to F10, or something. 1 keystroke instead of 4. Add this line to fminit\configui\customui.cfg: > Or maybe you could do the import in MIF. Find out what the entry for a text inset looks like, create copies of this entry and edit the path and filename in the copies.

RE: Importing text insets
This isn't drag and drop, but you could use the shortcut keys for importing files - ESC f-i-f. It's faster than going to the menu, anyway. -Shelly -Original Message- Doug <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote on 06/09/2006 12:03:18 PM: > Is there a way import text insets by dragging and dropping them into > an open Frame document?
