deleting extra section breaks in sub-documents

[jesse]

Karin,

Section Breaks are inserted to maintain the integrity of
formatting. The next section contains different
formatting, e.g., header change, layout, margins, etc. My
thinking is that Word is using these section breaks to
maintain the start and finish integrity of the master and
subdocuments. You can try deleting them after renaming
your master and subdocuments and see the result.

While I think the suggestion to 'Save a copy, Suck it and See' is a good
one, you might also want to look at
