I am currently working with Word :-( and have a big problem with
references. In order to create references that refer to other parts in the
manual, I need to put all chapters into one very large document. Now Word
doesn't cope very well with large documents, and the Master Document only
works occasionally, so I wondered if FrameMaker was any better as far as
references in different files are concerned.
Can you create page references to pages in a different file in FrameMaker?
Maybe now is the time to suggest a different tool... I've just lost a whole
days work, because Word completely bu****d up my file!!!
Thanks in advance,
Sybille
