Hi

I have a document which will be made up of other documents other people have
written. I intended to use the Master Documents to control this but after
reading many horror stories about corruption of documents using Master
Documents I was wondering if there was another way I could do this?

I have tried the includetext field and this seems to work ok. Is there a
better way of bringing all the documents together?

At least one other option: Maintain the docs separately until completed,
then use InsertFile to compile the final volume. There may be other
possibilities as well depending on version and how the docs are constructed
(consistent formatting using defined Styles, layout specs, etc.). I'm sure
you'll get a number of replies on the various pros & cons
