Set up of complex, multi-part documents? WORD 2007
What are the best practices for setting up complex, multi-part documents in
WORD 2007? Specifically we want to be able to have 6 to 12 separate parts of a single document, set up in a way that we can quickly move from one part to another part; without scrolling through the pages. In EXCEL this can be done by using multiple "worksheets". In Lotus WORDPRO this can be done by creating what they call sections. Word's "sections" do not appear to be comparable. ;^) English is not my native lanuage. Please be clear and specifc in your reply. Thank you! |

Set up of complex, multi-part documents? WORD 2007
A couple of suggestions are
1) create a table of contents at the start of the document (you will find that in word 2007 in the References Tab) 2) Use hyperlinks within the document (select text, right click, hyperlink then choose place in this document) For these to work you will need to use styles i.e. heading 1, heading 2 "tadopolis" wrote: What are the best practices for setting up complex, multi-part documents in WORD 2007?

And to add to Roo's answer...
If you format your document correctly with styles, you can use the DocMap as a navigation aid. The DocMap can be considered as a 'docked Table of Contents' and just clicking on a section title jumps to that section. When you have multiple levels of headings, you can right-click on the DocMap and choose how many levels you want to display. (But note that the DocMap is an AutoFormat trigger so that if you haven't correctly used styles for headings, etc., the DocMap will try to guess where headings should be and apply a heading style.) The Table of Contents also lets you navigate as clicking on the page number of a heading will also jump you to that section. To return to the TOC to select another area, there is a Return to TOC command that you can add to the Quick Launch Toolbar. -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "tadopolis" wrote in message ...
