@Hans-Gerd – interesting…
Never did stuff like that.
What will happen in a multi-user environment, if one particular image on a server is placed (removed) from several InDesign documents "at the same" time? I imagine your code plus the idea of Dirk with numerous event handlers writing "constantly" to the images. Is a clash of writing operations by opening, closing files a "likely" case? And what will happen then?
