Inter-Document Cross-Referencing
I'm writing a book, and each chapter is typeset in a different MS Word
2007 file. It's easy to cross-reference within each document, but, is it possible to cross-reference between chapters? |

Inter-Document Cross-Referencing
Hi Mohammad,
You can reference bookmarks in another file by using the INCLUDETEXT field, which is similar to the REF field, but refers to text in another file. The syntax is {INCLUDETEXT "filename" [bookmark]}. -- Hope this helps, Pesach Shelnitz My Web site: http://makeofficework.com "Mohammad Sadeq Dousti" wrote: I'm writing a book, and each chapter is typeset in a different MS Word 2007 file.

Inter-Document Cross-Referencing
Hi Pesach,
And thanks for the great advice. INCLUDETEXT is a good trick indeed, but REF has one advantage: The /r switch. It inserts the entire paragraph number of the bookmarked paragraph in relative context. With INCLUDETEXT, the actual "text" goes there, not the paragraph number. For example, I can't cross- reference section "3.4.6" in another chapter (say, chapter 5), as "3.4.6" is the paragraph number and not the bookmarked text. Any ideas?

Combine the documents. Word can handle documents of hundreds even thousands
of pages. Make sure you backup your work regularly. http://www.gmayor.com/automatically_backup.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Mohammad Sadeq Dousti" wrote in message ...
