hi

I've got a client who use word for book creation i.e. User books which
demand TOC, indexes, chapter creation leading to putting the whole book
together. Master/Sub documents do not work for them in consolidating all
elements of the book. They've had someone create a few macros for them to
automate parts of the work but will soon not have access to that person.

A company I used to work for had developed a custom version of word that
automated everything. Unfortunately it is supported only up to word 97
version - it would have been perfect for them.

Can anyone recommend an off-the-shelf custom version of word that would
automate long document creation without the user having to create all of the
code?

thanks for your help
