Renaming Pages - Will Links Still...

If I rename a page ID in VSD, will all my links to that page automatically update so that they are pointing to the new page ID? In other words, would I lose my links to that page, or would they remain intact?

They should, as long as they made using the link tool. Give it a try. If it doesn't don't save. Links made with the HTML box will have to be redone by hand.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

You were right, Rolly. It worked beautifully.

I had created my links using the link tool. When I renamed a page and spot-checked some of the links, they were pointing to the new page name.

Thanks!

You have to ask nicely I find, then VSD does everything your heart desires
