about outlining ...

Hi.

I stopped using the master document feature in Word 2003. It was simply too cumbersome: Pagination sometimes worked, sometimes didn’t (numbering doc1 from - say - page 1 to 25 and continuing doc2 with page 26). Table of contents also didn’t work reliably.

Cannot say whether that’s still true for Word 2007 or 2010.

Moreover: No comparison to Scrivener’s ease of use when switching from one “document” to another and when compiling chapters.
