“Referenced in” or “Referenced from”?
Which one is most correct?
Can ABC not be referenced from file X?
My two sentences sound the same even though I had been told that your two sentences mean the same thing – each of them has two meanings. All of them are perfectly clear.
Is there some reason why File X should
not refer to ABC in a file M?
Should NOT be referenced from the file X.
Sounds to be like file X contains an ABC that nothing else should reference when using sub-class X? If that’s the intended meaning, then I would use:
ABC from file X should not be referenced.
Does an ABC exist in another file? If so, what are the symbols where is the referenced?
Both usages are correct, and there is no difference in meaning between them that I can perceive. I can see how all of them are the same. Choose whatever you feel comfortable with and continue
to use.

Why are all descriptors alike? How should I choose my preposition to say that message or message can be clearly shown by clicking on the appropriate preposition and then repeating the same.
If you think of the reference as an arrow in arrow in diagram coming from file X to ABC, then from works better as the preposition, as it indicates movement and
direction: ABC should not be referenced from file
X. If you think of the reference to ABC within the boundaries of file X, then it is in that works better as the preposition, as it indicates inclusion within a
space: ABC should not be referenced in file
X. I would probably write the sentence with from with in a technical document,
