"Insert as Link" makes use of the IncludeText field. See
http://daiya.mvps.org/includetext.htm. Using fields is safer than
master documents (see the reply by Charles Kenyon about problems

with
master docs).

can anyone tell me the difference between using a master doc in
outline
view and inserting a file using "insert as link"


Wow, thanks Stefan! This may be the answer I have been searching

for.


Anyone know why the file size is getting so large if I am using
'INCLUDETEXT' feature? The documents are not embedded, they are
linked, but the file size of the "master" is as big as if they were
embedded.
