Default Word 2002 - problem wih linked items in INCLUDETEXT

Hi,

A problem has developed in with my Word links that I hope someone can help
me with.

I have a large set of documentation in Word format. There are a few chapters
that are included in more than one document. What I have done is create
these chapters as separate documents, and included them in the required
documents using { INCLUDTEXT "Chapter2.doc" }

So far so good.

Within the linked chapter (Chapter2.doc in the example above), there are
cross reference links to bookmarks WITHIN the same document - i.e.,
Chapter2.doc has cross references to bookmarks within Chapter2.doc

Until now this has worked with no problems - Chapter2 starts on page 15 in
one document, and the bookmark is on page 25; in another document Chapter2
starts on page 20 and the bookmark is on page30.

Today, when I opened the same document, all cross references within
Chpater2 are listed on the wrong page number - if Chapter 2 runs from pages
15-40, all cross references within Chapter2 point to page 40.

I tried updating fields and reinserting the linked document - no luck

Does anyone know how this error suddenly appeared, and how I can get rid of
it?
