It will not magically update behind the scenes, but when you open Master.doc
and update the IncludeText field, then it will pull the most recent version
from doc1.doc.

This would work if only it links to doc1.doc and updates Master.doc

Instead of referring to it, why not include it using an IncludeText field?
You can point the field to the bookmarked area of doc1.doc. Use Insert |
File and type the bookmark name as the "range."

OK. Let's say I have two big documents - Master.doc and doc1.doc.
Master.doc would refer to certain sections of doc1.doc. For example,
there
will be sections 1-10 in doc1.doc. In Master.doc, I would like to show
only
section 1 in one paragrah, and then in another paragraph, only shows
section
2. Do you know what I mean?

Perhaps if you tell us more about what you're trying to do...

How do you reference a specific section of another document?
Let's say I have one master document (master.doc) and another
document
(doc1.doc).
In the master.doc, I want to refer a specific section from
doc1.doc,
but
not
the whole document. Is there any way to do it?
