External Cross Reference

In FrameMaker 9 is there a way to create cross reference to a particular page on another doc (without closing the current/source doc)?

I tried using "openpage filename:pagenumber" option, the link takes me to page 1 of the referenced doc not to the specified page, and as it is a hyper link when page 1 of the referenced doc gets displayed the souce doc closes.

When a link is clicked in the source doc, it is required that the source doc remians open.

This is an urgent requirement, can anyone please reply soon?

This behaviour is a dependency on the Acrobat/Reader settings. In the Preferences > General > Documents > Open Settings, the status of the "Open cross document links in the same window" will control this.

However, since this is a user-specific setting, you may have no control over the situation.
