My latest irritation has been converting a master doc to a single doc.
It pulls the sub docs in as links instead of really making it a single

Yes, subdocs are linked in. Normally one would simply use Edit > Links
and break all the links. This can be done easily. Select all the links
and press Break.

<Jean thumps head> That never occurred to me! Thank you! I just tried it, and it worked as expected.

Unfortunately, I can't save the result as a .ODT file; OOo only allows me to save it as a master doc (.ODM) file. However, I discovered that I could change the file extension to .ODT after saving as .ODM, so that's not a real problem. (My reason for wanting to have it as .ODT is that a different extension is likely to confuse some other people.)

I will make a note about this "break links" technique in the master docs chapter. Thanks again!

Now to check whether breaking the links fixes the randomly-wrong cross-references problem...
