how do i chain multiple docs and keep child doc page numbering?

Assembling composite Word doc of monthly reports from several sources. Need
each child doc to keep page numbering of original, even though one child may
have sections with numbering starting over for each section, while next child
has sections but keeps contiuous page numbering. New master doc can't treat
member children as section, where page numbering starts over since that ruins
start numbers for sections contained in some of the child docs.

Hi Chris,

In the parent document, you can set up the page numbering for each Section to start from 1 and, if you're using a 'page x of y'
format, to retain the child's 'y' via a SECTIONPAGES field.
