Default Master Document w subdocuments in Word2007?

In Word 2007, I am unable to create a new master document where I could
incorporate sub documents from files on my disk, as was possible i previous
versions of Word. How to do this? The Help files show no entries at all.

It appears that you're familiar with master documents and all the associated
risks.

To find the commands to create and manipulate master documents in Word 2007:
On the View tab, in the Document Views group, click Outline View.
On the Outlining tab, in the Master Document group, click the Show Document
button to display the full complement of commands.

Default Master Document w subdocuments in Word2007?

Hi Aeneas

I also am having problems with subs in 2007. I have used master and subs
without problem in word 2003, but the same doc won't open when I go to print
preview in 2007. So now I am trying to recreate this doc and have got it all
to the stage of creating the subdocument but it won't let me. I also can't
find anything on word 2007 help. Are you able to help me

The master document function in Word is broken. It is not a question of if
your documents will corrupt but when.
