HI folks, I am nonplussed by Frame's apparent behavior when roundtripping. Given a generic rule like this: put element "chapter" in file "chap.fm"; The chapters increment each time you re-import XML to Frame so that the first time you might have chap1, chap2 and chap3, but the next time, you'll have chap4, chap5, and chap6 and so on. This occurs even when you click "yes" to overwrite the existing files. This plays havoc not only with identifying which chapter you are in or are looking for, but also with any attempt to save documents under any version control system, since their names are always changing. I find this astonishing, so I feel sure I am missing some obvious book-level workflow. Our goal is to save a book as XML under version control, then have our writers check out the entire book, or documents as needed, open them in Frame, edit as necessary, save back to XML, and check back into version control. This must be a common process for writers working in structured documents. Am I missing something? Thanks so much for any ideas, Shelley
