    Thank you Jeff, Matt,

    The patch installed, but that was not enough, neither the forum suggestions. 

    I still don’t know what was wrong prior to the patching. Afterwards, when I started debugging in earnest, pinpointed to some 4-layer index markers (unsupported in my templates but not snapping before). Indeed, the patch was supposed to fix some indexing bugs, so it might need another patch.

    Thanks again.

    Are you saying that the 4th level index entries are causing the issue?

    Yes, when I deleted the 4-tier index markers, I could successfully rebuild the book.

    You all patched up? Does it happen to all books or just one in particular? Have you submitted the error log to the FM engineers?

    1. I don't know. Installed in Sept.'17 -- where do I get the patches?

    2. Only one, and not always.

    3. No -- last time I submitted, the response was to not expect a response.
