[Wd2003] I have one existing document with a substantial amount of
text that is divided into sections. I would like to be able to select
a section, then export it to create a new document that comprises only
that section. There does not seem to be a way to do that. Is there?
The situation is this: I have multiple documents that vary in many
respects, but there are many sections that are, or ought to be, the
same from one document to the other. It is too difficult, and too
prone to error, to find and modify each section in each document when
changes are necessary. So I would like, instead, to have those
sections as free-standing documents, which can then be brought into
the various "real" documents by an INCLUDETEXT field. It would take
far too long to copy each section, create a new document, paste the
section into the new document, save and close it, and then return to
the composite document and do the same thing with the next section.
Isn't there some way to "zap" a portion of text into a newly created
document?
