Exactly. I maintain and develop my own (Xe)LaTeX style and class files 
and its their "nature" that they are to be used by more than one 
document. I mostly have a testbed document and the real thing and for 
another project I reuse older style and class files. In WinEdt I used to 
use the Main File mechanism quite regularly.

Stefan, the "undefined;"-workaround seems to do the trick, thanks!

All the best -- Thomas
