Ramgopal, this was such an incredible timesaver. When I finish writing a novel (17 so far) I have everything in one document. My editing program won't take 80K words, so I've been manually breaking the document down into individual chapters. That takes forever when you have over 40 chapters. What you just taught me is fabulous! Thank you so much!

😲Excellent! I got it to work. Thank you👏For some reason, my MacBook creates a 2nd copy of the new folder with the same folder name with the split documents going into the 2nd folder and the original document staying in the new folder, but it still works🥳

I get a pop up from Microsoft Word: The selection does not consist of heading levels. I did step-by-step as directed. Not sure what to do/what this means.

[@zarahcejoco1821]

The individual files were not created after I saved the main document. What am I doing wrong here?

Frustrating - on 4.47 when I click on "Text from file" I just get the blank page - no lower window with 'insert' option. I've played around with it but can't get anywhere. Pity.

Hi ramgopal, I tried doing the above steps - the chapters are being created fine ...but in the master document all i can see is the links to the chapter and not the content. C:\WINDOWS\system32\Chapter 1.docx C:\WINDOWS\system32\Chapter 2.docx C:\WINDOWS\system32\Chapter 3.docx C:\WINDOWS\system32\Chapter 4.docx Please help

This error might depend on the version of word you use, but i could also be wrong.

Hi Srinivasan! Did you close the child documents by any chance? I did that once and faced the same issue.

Hi @@srini196812, I faced a similar issue, and the following procedure fixed it for me: 1. In the main ribbon at the top, go to the View tab. 2. In the View tab, go to the ‘Views’ panel on the very left and click the ‘Outline’ button. This will prompt the document to be in Outline View. 3. In Outline View, the main ribbon should now have a tab called ‘Outlining’. Go to this this tab. 4. In the Outlining tab, go to the ‘Master Document’ panel and click on ‘Expand Subdocuments’. This will expand the links into the chapter contents. 5. In the ‘Close’ panel of the Outlining tab, click on ‘Close Outline View’ to return to the default document view. The master document should now show the contents of all the chapters. Hope this helps.
