Not many people use master documents since they are prone to corruption;
that's why it is difficult to get assistance with the master document
feature.

I don't use master documents either, so I can only give you some general
thoughts...

Was numbering set up using styles? Are these defined in each of the
subdocuments *and* in the master document?

Hi,
Sorry to ask the same question again but I got no helpful information the
last time - just a message saying the function doesn't work very well (I
could have worked that out for myself).
In Word 2007, the list numbering in the subdocuments is lost when I expand
subdocuments in the master. I am in Word 2003 compatibility mode and I did
not have this problem when using Word 2003. Please respond if you know how
to
fix this problem in Word 2007. as I am stuck
