What version of Word?

Here's a link to one expert's suggestions on safely using Master Documents:
Steve Hudson [Word Heretic] on how to make Master Documents work safely:
http://www.techwr-l.com/techwhirl/ma...dhomepage.html

However, and I don't know enough about Windows to be sure, a document
becoming unpleasantly slow after 30 pages, even with figures and equations,
suggests there might be something else going on with your setup.

Hello,

I'm now writing my Master of Science Thesis and till now I used Master and
Subdocuments for it (all chapters in separate subdocuments). Today I've
come accross several articles that I must say frightened me, saying that
there are major problems with Master documents (on word.MVPS.Org site).

So if there are such problems with them what should I do now? How to write
a long scientific document with loads of equations, figures, bibliography
cross-references. If I keep it all in one document and it becomes larger
than 30 pages (with many equations) work with it becomes very unpleasent

What are other methods of handling large scientific documents without the
problem considering corrupted master documents?


Thank You for that link, I've already read it before posting It was one
of the reasons why I decided to ask profesionals about that matter, and how
to avoid future problem (as now I still have some time to change few things
in my project).

Maybe that number of 30 pages is a little to low but believe me when the
number of equations is getting larger the more problems occur
(unfortunatelly I cannot convert them to images at that point because first
it has to be checked by my Profesor, who has to have possibility of editing
them if it is neccesary).

So for now I'll stick to Steve Hudson's tips on how to work with master
documents, but I'm still looking for another solutions to the problem (that
is different from using LaTeX )

Thanks again for Your answer
