Default How do I save a large document as several linked html files?

I have a 250 page document that I would like to convert to a web document.
It has about 14 chapters and several appendices. I'd like each of those to
be a separate html file, so they will be relatively small and quick to load
in a browser. Here is what I tried:
* Save As Web Page (*.htm, *.html). This saved the whole document as one
web page, which was too big to navigate easily, and slow to load. (saame
result with Word 2000 and Word 2007)
* I split the document into a master document and subdocuments (one subdoc
for each chapter and appendix). Word 2000 saved this as a set of htm
documents, but the links between the chapters (table of contents,
cross-references) were broken. Word 2007 just saved the master doc as htm,
with links to the chapters as Word docs, and broken table of contents links.

Can anyone tell me a manageable method for converting the large document to
a set of html pages, without broken links from the cross-references and
tables of contents?

I forgot - In Word 2000, I also tried "File - New - (Web Pages tab) - Web
Page Wizard", and added the master and subdocuments as existing files at the
"add pages" stage, but again got broken links between documents.
