I am working with a 291 page document that I decided in retrospect to create
as a master Document with sub-documents. The original document had the
different section headings embedded in the headers. So to create
sub-documents I created a new heading - to which I was supposed to add a
style - but the only options I had in the drop down menu were levels. I
created what I thought was the correct levels and went ahead and created 230
sub documents. Now all the new headings appear (of course) in the print
preview along with the previously created headers. I would like to make the
new headings invisible and thought I could do that by editing the style once
and it therefore applying throughout. The level is not apparently editable
in that way. Can anyone help me?

Hi there

not many have dealt with subdocuments (at least, not successfully and
talked about it :-)). What version of Word is this?

How?

Hold it there -- you did say 230? Why's that? Why subdocuments in the
first place? What are you after that you can't do in one big document?

preview along with the previously created headers. I would like to make the

Actually, I'm not entirely sure what you're having: you say you've used
a heeading style, and you can't set it to "invisible" (character
property)? I feel like I need to know more about your setup.
