But there is a way -- two, in fact, and Debbie, Art, and Stuart explained them pretty clearly. All you need to do is either: (1) Import variables from your title file to the other files in the book, and put the Doc Title and Doc Type variables in your headers. To update all the headers, fix the master pages of one chapter and import its master pages to the other chapters. BTW, you can import formats to multiple files at once by selecting the files to be updated in the book window. (2) Instead of variables, use cross-references to the title* in your headers. Again, once you have the x-refs set up in one chapter, you can import its master pages to the others. So, what capability is it that you're missing? Either of the above methods is simpler than what you were trying to do. Both work. * If you insist on using two different paragraphs for the book title, you'll need two x-refs.
