I build TOCs and Indexes in Word master docs without any serious
problems.  The key, as I said previously, is to ensure that all your
component docs use the *exact same* controlled template, without
any rogue styles slipping in through other peoples' doc files.  Where
most people fall into the snake pit, I think, is in pulling in docs from
various sources and depending on their master document's template
to override whatever formatting is in the subdocs.  IMO, that part
of Word truly is broken.

Frame's "advantage" over Word for large, complex docs is mostly
in the fact that the relative scarcity of Frame seats in most companies
means that the Frame user is *usually* protected from attempts by
others to "help" build and update documents.
