Default Copying sub-documents into a new folder

I have a master document, with about 50 subs, with a total
page count of around 250. Each sub is a different section
of a construction specification. Each new project requires
a spec, and only about half of the total sections are ever
used for any project. For each new project, I want to be
able to select which sections I want, have them saved to a
new folder for the new project name, and all be opened
with the master document. This will allow me to customize
each section to the given project, without affecting the
standard sub-document.

The only way I can think of to do this is to open each
subdocument, and Save As.. the master and each sub to the
new folder, then delete the leftover hyperlinks to the
unneeded subs. This takes forever.

Is there no way to just change the hyperlink within the
master document? Ideally, I would like to be able to have
a form set up, where I can select the sub-documents I want
with radio buttons, and have them copied to a new folder,
with a master document created, containing only those
subs, with a table of contents for each sub-document.

Any advice or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Dave
