updating drawing pages un-updates other pages

Why is it when you go to update your drawing, some pages un-update. If I have a five page drawing, I can go through every sheet and update each one at a time. When I go back to sheet 1 it is un-updated. So then when I go to update page 1 again, page 2 un-updates and so on. This really irritates me. Anyone have the same problem?

This only happens with some assembly drawings and have not been able to determine what causes it.

Don't know what's causing your problem, but try updating all the parts first, then the assemblies.

You may have some circular refernces somewhere!

My coworker figured out the problem. We frequently paste a section view from one page to another and that is what is causing it. If we move the section view back to the page it was created on then all the pages update.

This is the case for section views and detail views.
