Default Creating "Subdocuments" Within Word

I'm creating a "grail" document in Word 2003. This will describe several
models we use, and will contain instructional/how to, as well as theory and
technical info.

What I'd like to do is designate a section of text (it may be a paragraph,
it may span several pages) with some kind of hidden category, like
"instruction" or "technical", etc. It may be that a group of text might fall
into more than one category. I know that these categories will be repeated
several times within the doument....a paragraph of technical data on page 3,
and then a few more on page 9, and then all of pages 12-14, etc.

My desire is that once this document is done, I will create a macro that
allows people to print a technical manual by having it go through and only
print text with a "technical" category assigned, or create a user guide by
only printing "instructional" sections.

I'm not sure how to do this or if it is even possible. Any thoughts or
advice would be appreciated.
