The ability to reference pictures in OP/OPW documents is an extremely useful feature, but problems arise when the location of the picture file "changes". 



I have the same problem with Referencing on an Iyonix.  I have never
found a solution, so thanks for the file renaming suggestions above.


Two things that would make life easier would be ...
1. A picture "reference" is akin to a Windows shortcut -- a utility that would "repair" the shortcut/reference when the location of a picture changes would be useful. Does such a thing exist in Windowsland?
2. Under XP, OPW (with View>Options>Picture ticked) collapses if it tries to open a page containing a reference to a picture it can't find. Would it be possible (Mr P.) to reprogram OPW to automatically switch the View>Option>Picture setting to "off" (unticked) rather than collapsing when it encounters an incorrect picture reference?
