Word: how to create comprehensive TOC for multiple *.docs
Subject:Word: how to create comprehensive TOC for multiple *.docs From:"Brierley, Sean" <Sean -at- Quodata -dot- Com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Mon, 28 May 2001 11:17:50 -0400
Hallo:
Sorry for a tool-related question. I posted to a Microsoft list and have
reviewed both the online help and third-party documentation that I have
available, including Web Searches.
I have several Word documents (97, but the version matters not), each with
its own TOC, each its own document.
1) Is there a way to create a master TOC and master index that covers all of
these docs *without* copying all the docs into one big file?
2) It seems one way to do this is *master docs*.
3) Other than master docs, using reference fields, or some such thing, is
there a way to create a master doc and master index, each possibly as a
separate document in and of itself? Thoughts?
Thanks guys!!! Please answer off-list, if you can.
Cheers,
Sean
