Default RE-order page sequence

Two "unfortunately"s: It's dated 2002, so may not even apply to
Word2003; and it's very poorly written (quite aside from the cross
references to other chapters, which may or may not have been written/
posted -- amazon lists no books by (Steve) Hudson about Word), with
mentions of doing steps presented later than the current one, etc.

And the notion of deleting all section breaks is absurd -- sometimes,
different column arrangements are needed within a document!

Thanks ... it's presented as a chapter of his book-in-progress on
working with very advanced features of Word -- but it's dated April
2007. I suppose he's had to go back and rewrite everything he'd
already done.

Unfortunately that did not work- the location images completely screwed
up.


With pictures things get more complicated, because each picture moves with
the text paragraph to which it is *anchored*
(seehttp://word.mvps.org/faqs/drwgrphcs/anchors.htm). Cut and paste
instead
(though it will be time-consuming).


So to be systematic about this ( the deadline is 6pm tonight) am cutting
each 2 page section into a new doc with the intention or inserting each
of
these new files into a new master doc.


Now, to learn something from this, should I try to use the Sub-document
outline view for the new master doc?


The master document feature will not help in any way;
seehttp://word.mvps.org/faqs/general/WhyMasterDocsCorrupt.htm.


Alas, the document referenced at the top of that one, Steve Hudson on
how to use master documents safely, is no longer at the link provided.
Does it exist somewhere?--
