Footnote pagination

[mahal1940]

Gurus,
I want to include several documents with titles into one main/master
document which is the easy part. Once the docs are included, I want to
paginate each individual document by the title of the document using
footers...eg.. document one is Driving Instructions so I want to use footers
for this 3 page document like "Driving Instructions: Page 1" (no quotes, pg 2
and pg 3).
I can get the first document paginated as desired but when I try to do the
next document called "Client Instructions" which is 3 pages, and use the same
footer system, it may or may not work and often changes the footer on the
first document to the Client Instructions: Page 1, 2 etc.
There are about 6 documents that I want to set up in a master or main
document to be able to print them at one time and have the footers show the
document name and page number to keep it orderly.
I did get 2 documents set up and then things went haywire...could not set
up the footer on the 3rd doc without messing up the other 2 docs.
Tried inserting breaks after the last page of a doc and highlighting the
new document>footers> and type in Doc Name Page 1 but cannot do what I want
to do. THANKS in advance to anyone who can help me out.

You'll likely find using Master documents is not recommends due to
various reasons, one of which is they lead to document corruption.

If you want more information and an answer for resolving your
footnotes issue then post your question to one of the specific Word
newsgroups, I'd say Word General Questions would be a good one use. I
know of a few experts in this area that hang out there and they'll
have the information you need readily available.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.
