Breaking up a large document

[Nano Man]

I have a document with several chapters. I would like to break it up so that
there is a separate file for each chapter. Is there a way to create separate
files and keep the table of contents, chapter numbers, and page numbers the
same as they are in the complete document?

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for but we have a manual that is
10 pages long but what it consists of is a 3 page table of contents that link
to chapters and each chapter has listings that link to separate documents
that detail the procedures. So you could create individual documents that
detail your chapters and just use hyperlinks to link to those documents. If
you wanted to view it, I could email you the document but none of the links
would work without me emailing you each document... but you'd have an idea of
what it would look like. Let me know.

This is precisely what Master Documents are for. The master contains the
title material and TOC, then each of the chapters, in its own file, as a
sub-document. HOWEVER, master documents are notorious for becoming corrupt,
they create a whole lot of new problems, and all-in-all, most people find
them a total PIB to work with.
