Word 2007 Combine Documents - added paragraphs get merged
Hi Cindy
Thanks for your reply. We don't have empty paragraphs and always use
Space Before and/or Space After. The problem is in Combining 2
documents: Word 2007 Review tab Compare dropdown Combine... As
the 2 documents merge, text from a new paragraph is (badly) merged
with text from the other document IF the 2 new paragraphs are in the
same location in each document.
We have got round the problem by inserting coloured headings: I type
new paragraphs under one heading and my colleague adds his new
paragraphs under his heading.
What I believe is required is a database document or a document
database where each paragraph is a record... Each user would be
allowed to add or edit paragraphs which they would 'own'. If 2 users
add paragraphs to their copies of the document then each one is added
as a new 'record' and the document owner can decide if they need to be
moved.
