Why do I get virtual connection warnings on global nets?

I want to use global connector for a multipage design in MS11.  Putting in a global connector everywhere I want a connection on a net seems to work, as does placing on page connectors to nets that have a single global connector elsewhere.

 

When I export to UB11 I get warnings:

 

 

The net "MOSI" exists but cannot be virtually connected to because it is located on another page. 
This may cause the name of the net connected to this on-page connector to change.
The net named "MOSI" is located on the following sheets:
- Net part 1 is located on sheet "5WuL#AnalogIO".
- Net part 2 is located on sheet "5WuL#AnalogIO".
 
It may still work, but why do I get this warning?

Hi,

 

Can you post the file that shows this problem?  You should remove everything on the design leaving only the things that show this problem, you want to keep your file confidential.  Otherwise, go to ni.com\ask and send the file to us.

After continuing to work on the design, having windows update, reboot PC, etc. It now does not generate the warnings.  I didn't do anything different about how I've been using the global and sheet connectors.  I don't know at what pint the messages went away.  I guess I'll have to watch for it to crop up again.
