i've got a project where there is a 2-5 page document for each state, which
is called up by a master document using an if statement and the includetext
function.

in addition, i sometimes need to pull in additional 1-2 page docs, sometimes
as many as 4 in total.

my problem is that the master document formatting (especially the footer)
sometimes creeps into the sub documents.

each of the sub documents are completely static, i've looked at add ons for
word so that i could use pdf files instead of word docs for the sub docs, but
haven't found a decent solution.

any suggestions? thanks!

The subdocuments will need to be inserted in between section breaks with the
footers in the following section unlinked from those in the section in which
the subdocuments is inserted and the footers in that section unlinked from
the footer in the preceding section. Then the footer that may have crept
into the section containing the subdocument can be deleted without affecting
that in the sections on either side of it.

Hope this helps.
