Hi Joerg,

InDesign keeps track of text objects based on their index from the start of the story. The fragility of the objects really depends on the object and on the amount of text you're adding/removing. There are plenty of ways to try to maintain/re-acquire text references after removing/adding text before them, but they're all a lot more work than the approach I suggested.

Thanks,

Ole
