Interesting. I have never used that field before. In experimenting with it,
I keep getting the error: Error! Not a Valid Filename. The file will always
be in the same directory as the file in which the FIELD will reside, so I am
just entering the filename as filename.doc.
Now how does this differ from Master Document? The Help feature indicates
you can also push updates back to the source file by using the Ctrl + Shift +
F7 keystroke.

But what about re-use? The content of the large document is really
smaller
documents that needs to be re-used across multiple large documents.

So, I concede that the Master Document feature is a risk. So, what is
the
alternative to create a large document based on many small documents?
