Default How can I put chapters each with separate endnotes into one do

First insert a section break at the end of each separate chapter file
(Insert | Break | Section Break: Next page). Then make a copy of Chapter 1
(or whatever the first document is). At the end of that document (after the
section break you added), use Insert | File to insert Chapter 2. After the
section break at the end of Chapter 2 (in the combined document), insert
Chapter 3. Continue until you have added them all.

Each chapter will be separated from the others by a section break (thus
preserving any specific headers and footers you have added, etc.). Provided
you don't have any other section breaks in the document, your endnotes will
be at the end of each chapter after you go to Insert | Reference | Footnote,
select Endnotes, make the appropriate choices for formatting, select
"Restart each section," make sure "Whole document" is select for "Apply
changes to," and click Apply.

Thanks very much for your quick response. Sorry to be incompetent, but I
don't know how to combine the documents (there are 18 of them) and the

help
from office help was not clear at all. How do I add them together but keep
them as separate sections??

Combine the documents and select "Restart each section" in the Endnote
dialog. Note that this will work only if each chapter is a single

section.

I have all the chapters of my book saved in separate documents. I have

been
told to put it all together into one document. How can I do this and

still
keep the endnotes for each chapter separate (ie appearing immediately

at
the
end of each chapter)??? I don't want to change the notes into

footnotes or
into endnotes all together at the end of the document.
