Hi, if you would just like to combine a group of documents into a Master
document use the addin boilerplate.zip by G Mayor and put in your STARTUP folder as an add-in template or just go to Tools Templates and Add-ins (2003 and prior) and Browse to Add the template manually. Open your Master Document and run the BoilerPlate toolbar button and it will ask you to add the documents on the right to the left column. I think the new one has the option to put a section break between each document being added - Just test it first. Always setup your subdocs which are just documents based on the one template (same as your master document) and it will flow in really well. http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm Hope this helps.

The latest version of boiler.dot is compatible with Word 2007 also, and has
a check box on the userform to select the 'new page section break' option. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Summer wrote: Hi, if you would just like to combine a group of documents into a Master document use the addin boilerplate.zip by G Mayor and put in your STARTUP folder as an add-in template or just go to Tools Templates and Add-ins (2003 and prior) and Browse to Add the template manually.

this doesn't make any sense for me, i've downloaded the PDF and the template,
i located the start up folder like you said, but after i did your instructions don't tell me what to do after that, so i don't know how you got from the start up folder to the illustration of word options. i'm only new to word so maybe your instructions aren't for beginners or something as they aren't easy to follow.

The file on my web site is a zipped (compressed) file which when opened
(double click from Windows Explorer) contains the file boiler.dot and the instructions for use. It is the file boiler.dot that needs to be copied into your Word startup folder. Then the next time you start Word it will be loaded with Word and add a toolbar to provide the functionality of the macro. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org sonia wrote: this doesn't make any sense for me, i've downloaded the PDF and the template, i located the start up folder like you said, but after i did your instructions don't tell me what to do after that, so i don't know how you got from the start up folder to the illustration of word options. i'm only new to word so maybe your instructions aren't for beginners or something as they aren't easy to follow.
