I hope Mary I have your attention
Thankyou for your reply to my email of 13th last re create Master template.
However I have been thinking that I simply will not give up on the first
knock back.
Your advice re TOC and Index problems doubtless are well foundered.
But those aside. I have used Pub 2003/95 for some years to make Cmas flyers
and are simply well pleased with it.
WORD is a pain to me for anything beyond the mundane. I have every intention
of using PUB to layout my memoir files. I have written them in WORD - 2003 -
but there is where I hope things will greatly improve, layout being the key
to my ambitions here.
I am hoping that people like yourself can advise me.
Do I need to make separate "Master" files in Pub, i.e. one for frontside,
next maybe a TOC taken from WORD, acknowledgements etc, then another master
for the body proper, i.e. a number of .DOC files as chapters, so on and so
forth.

Using different styles for different pages seems to be no problem for me, DO
we use a lot of separate styles or can a "Master" be created in PUB with
"sections" as in WORD be created/used?

Hello David,

I hope you can get your memoirs together with Publisher.

There are some excellent training forums you can peruse that will get you on
your way.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/pu...247571033.aspx
Demos too
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/pu...sc=9&av=ZPB110

I have found the easiest way to get Word into Publisher without losing too much
formatting is to create the text box first, right-click, click change text,
click text file, browse to the Word file.

Take a look at the Design Gallery items, there are TOCs. Of course you will have
to manually fill in the information.

I don't mean to put you off doing your project in Publisher, if you are keen to
do it, we are here to help.

Doing a memoir isn't as easy as doing Christmas flyers.
