Cross file refs...

["Willi Egger" <w.egger@xs4all.nl>]

Hi Hans,

Your latest mail concerning cross-file referencing is just what I was
looking for. - I tried it out but I do not get the results required:

What I did is preparing a file, which contains all te file-names involved in
the project. Each of them contains a series of referencies.
I run then texexec  with the following text with a complete reference:

\section[gekart2:hoekjes]{Hoekjes snijden, opplakken en inslaan}

Een en ander staat ook beschreven in \in{hoofdstuk}[hoeken::hoeken:titel],
\about[hoeken::hoeken:titel] op  en verder.
\blank
Eenvoudige hoeken \index{hoeken} kunnen uit een vierkant gesneden worden.

%\at{pagina}[hoeken::hoeken:titel]

The result of this text is in the pdf-file is:

HBB-Brevier 1
1 Hoekjes snijden, opplakken en inslaan
Een en ander staat ook beschreven in / . , " " op en verder.
Eenvoudige hoeken kunnen uit een vierkant gesneden worden.

Remarks:

In the pdf file the forward-slash after in is a 'diamond' like shape.

When I uncomment the last row with the \at comand, I geet an error message,
saying that there is a superfluous curly-brace.

Do you have an idea what is wrong?

Furthermore I tried out also the use of \useexternaldocument[somfile]. The
reference is only given as a 'diamond' like shape, no label is typeset, but
the diamond is an active hyperlink. Again the \at command is not accepted
with the same error message.

I am really interested in this feature, because once I will typeset only
parts of the work (still the same piece :-] ), I would like to have the
references correct, though the textparts where the references point to are
not included.

Thanks also for your answer concerning the \completecontent- question. - It
is indeed the point to add the criterium and it works!
