[texhax] using /include

[Beverley Eyre]

Wayne,

Are you using \includeonly in the preamble?

For example in my dissertation I have:
(in preamble)
\includeonly{%
frontmatter/nomenclature,
chapters/intro,
chapters/preface,
... ,
images/tex/diagTST,
}

then
\begin{document}
\include{chapters/intro}
....

blah

works fine.
